spoke about UFOs a lot has happened and 22 00:01:31,490 --> 00:01:29,340 um I kind of want to cover a lot of that 23 00:01:34,730 --> 00:01:31,500 with you tonight but I want to go as 24 00:01:37,490 --> 00:01:34,740 current as possible it's the only thing 25 00:01:41,630 --> 00:01:37,500 being talked about right now in the news 26 00:01:44,330 --> 00:01:41,640 cycle and that's the balloon and 27 00:01:45,770 --> 00:01:44,340 I I don't know your thoughts on all of 28 00:01:47,149 --> 00:01:45,780 this but I would love to get your 29 00:01:49,730 --> 00:01:47,159 perspective about what's going on 30 00:01:51,530 --> 00:01:49,740 because it does sort of tie in to a lot 31 00:01:54,950 --> 00:01:51,540 of what's going on in the UFO world now 32 00:01:56,810 --> 00:01:54,960 and and arrow and all of that stuff so 33 00:01:58,670 --> 00:01:56,820 um I'm just gonna flat out ask the 34 00:02:01,789 --> 00:01:58,680 question what do you make of this whole 35 00:02:03,889 --> 00:02:01,799 China spy balloon thing where do you 36 00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:03,899 think it's heading and does this have 37 00:02:08,809 --> 00:02:06,780 absolutely anything to do with the UFO 38 00:02:10,669 --> 00:02:08,819 and government conversation going on 39 00:02:12,350 --> 00:02:10,679 right now uh we'll answer your last 40 00:02:13,790 --> 00:02:12,360 question first I'm going to think no I 41 00:02:17,030 --> 00:02:13,800 don't think this is a strictly speaking 42 00:02:18,949 --> 00:02:17,040 UFO related matter however it is 43 00:02:20,150 --> 00:02:18,959 interesting and it's important uh when 44 00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:20,160 you look at the Contemporary 45 00:02:24,290 --> 00:02:22,080 geopolitical realignment that's 46 00:02:26,030 --> 00:02:24,300 happening in the world right now uh what 47 00:02:28,869 --> 00:02:26,040 what we're seeing obviously is that the 48 00:02:31,369 --> 00:02:28,879 United States is essentially uh sort of 49 00:02:33,589 --> 00:02:31,379 fumbled away 50 00:02:35,150 --> 00:02:33,599 um it's geopolitical dominance over the 51 00:02:37,010 --> 00:02:35,160 world I mean it was inevitable that that 52 00:02:38,570 --> 00:02:37,020 would happen but I I certainly think 53 00:02:40,990 --> 00:02:38,580 that things have happened in the last 54 00:02:44,030 --> 00:02:41,000 year and and more that have Excel 55 00:02:46,850 --> 00:02:44,040 accelerated that so with China 56 00:02:48,589 --> 00:02:46,860 uh so China said that this balloon was 57 00:02:50,990 --> 00:02:48,599 for commercial purposes only I don't 58 00:02:52,910 --> 00:02:51,000 know who really believes that at all uh 59 00:02:54,890 --> 00:02:52,920 in fact this morning uh I believe the US 60 00:02:57,050 --> 00:02:54,900 has made the claim 61 00:02:59,809 --> 00:02:57,060 that they have uh proof or what have you 62 00:03:02,809 --> 00:02:59,819 that this is an Espionage balloon 63 00:03:04,190 --> 00:03:02,819 uh now having said you know I will never 64 00:03:06,170 --> 00:03:04,200 ever take anything the United States 65 00:03:09,229 --> 00:03:06,180 says as its word the US does not have 66 00:03:10,670 --> 00:03:09,239 good uh record of honesty but it's 67 00:03:13,550 --> 00:03:10,680 probably true I would say this is 68 00:03:17,149 --> 00:03:13,560 probably a spy balloon uh it's a not an 69 00:03:18,949 --> 00:03:17,159 unusual thing that China would do that 70 00:03:20,509 --> 00:03:18,959 um the real question is like is there 71 00:03:22,610 --> 00:03:20,519 significance to this I mean first of all 72 00:03:25,490 --> 00:03:22,620 the US is acting like it's shocked and 73 00:03:28,130 --> 00:03:25,500 offended that its sovereignty has been 74 00:03:30,830 --> 00:03:28,140 invaded by a spy balloon when in fact 75 00:03:32,809 --> 00:03:30,840 the United States is of all Nations the 76 00:03:34,610 --> 00:03:32,819 number one that violates the sovereignty 77 00:03:36,589 --> 00:03:34,620 of other countries the US has always 78 00:03:39,229 --> 00:03:36,599 done that and the US will always do that 79 00:03:41,210 --> 00:03:39,239 as long as it has the capability 80 00:03:43,970 --> 00:03:41,220 so uh and that includes all kinds of 81 00:03:45,470 --> 00:03:43,980 Espionage that includes all kinds of uh 82 00:03:47,089 --> 00:03:45,480 you know color Revolution Shenanigans 83 00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:47,099 and the like I mean this is what the US 84 00:03:51,830 --> 00:03:49,739 does better than anyone else in the 85 00:03:52,670 --> 00:03:51,840 world China can't compete with that in 86 00:03:56,390 --> 00:03:52,680 the least 87 00:03:58,610 --> 00:03:56,400 so I love how you know the US is all 88 00:04:00,530 --> 00:03:58,620 offended about this the real problem is 89 00:04:03,890 --> 00:04:00,540 that I think with China they're still 90 00:04:06,350 --> 00:04:03,900 fuming uh they're Furious over the visit 91 00:04:07,850 --> 00:04:06,360 of a few months ago by Nancy Pelosi when 92 00:04:09,589 --> 00:04:07,860 she was 93 00:04:10,369 --> 00:04:09,599 um you know leader of the house 94 00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:10,379 um 95 00:04:14,270 --> 00:04:11,760 she 96 00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:14,280 makes that trip to Taiwan which really 97 00:04:17,930 --> 00:04:16,500 infuriated the Chinese I don't think 98 00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:17,940 Americans and people in the west 99 00:04:22,670 --> 00:04:20,880 appreciated just how angry the Chinese 100 00:04:24,830 --> 00:04:22,680 were and a lot of American Delight will 101 00:04:27,230 --> 00:04:24,840 screw you China you don't know in Taiwan 102 00:04:30,230 --> 00:04:27,240 who do you think you are but in China's 103 00:04:32,110 --> 00:04:30,240 uh position they've been very clear 104 00:04:35,870 --> 00:04:32,120 about this that Taiwan is part of China 105 00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:35,880 and so this was a direct offense 106 00:04:39,950 --> 00:04:38,160 particularly since Pelosi was the same 107 00:04:43,129 --> 00:04:39,960 member of the same party as the U.S 108 00:04:45,890 --> 00:04:43,139 President Biden so it was taken as very 109 00:04:48,350 --> 00:04:45,900 much kind of an official thing 110 00:04:50,450 --> 00:04:48,360 so the Chinese I think were angry about 111 00:04:52,550 --> 00:04:50,460 that I think maybe it made them a little 112 00:04:55,370 --> 00:04:52,560 more willing to just uh piss off The 113 00:04:57,530 --> 00:04:55,380 Americans on this and then uh I think 114 00:04:59,930 --> 00:04:57,540 what sealed the deal in my mind about 115 00:05:02,210 --> 00:04:59,940 this is the Chinese and the aftermath of 116 00:05:05,810 --> 00:05:02,220 this after the U.S shot down the balloon 117 00:05:06,830 --> 00:05:05,820 with an F-22 no less amazing uh the 118 00:05:09,350 --> 00:05:06,840 Chinese 119 00:05:10,550 --> 00:05:09,360 said well the next time a U.S aircraft 120 00:05:12,770 --> 00:05:10,560 comes 121 00:05:13,969 --> 00:05:12,780 near Chinese airspace maybe we'll do 122 00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:13,979 something 123 00:05:19,610 --> 00:05:17,520 so that was a definite ratcheting up of 124 00:05:21,770 --> 00:05:19,620 hostilities between us and China and 125 00:05:24,469 --> 00:05:21,780 this is very unlike China by the way and 126 00:05:25,670 --> 00:05:24,479 if you look at Chinese uh history China 127 00:05:27,770 --> 00:05:25,680 is not 128 00:05:29,870 --> 00:05:27,780 a truly 129 00:05:32,029 --> 00:05:29,880 um expansion like a geographically 130 00:05:34,550 --> 00:05:32,039 expansionist power it really never has 131 00:05:37,249 --> 00:05:34,560 been China has an Empire within China 132 00:05:39,050 --> 00:05:37,259 that's it they've got Tibet okay you can 133 00:05:40,909 --> 00:05:39,060 argue about that but China doesn't go 134 00:05:43,790 --> 00:05:40,919 around the world trying to switch out 135 00:05:45,890 --> 00:05:43,800 governments and and conquer them uh they 136 00:05:48,170 --> 00:05:45,900 don't have wars China's last real war 137 00:05:50,629 --> 00:05:48,180 was in 1979 against the Vietnamese and 138 00:05:53,870 --> 00:05:50,639 they didn't do well by the way so China 139 00:05:55,550 --> 00:05:53,880 is not a a militaristic power in the 140 00:05:57,469 --> 00:05:55,560 sense that the United States is but I 141 00:05:59,450 --> 00:05:57,479 think China is now feeling as their oats 142 00:06:01,310 --> 00:05:59,460 they are definitely quite powerful now 143 00:06:03,409 --> 00:06:01,320 everyone knows it they've got 144 00:06:06,110 --> 00:06:03,419 the world's strongest or second 145 00:06:08,029 --> 00:06:06,120 strongest economy and they have a 146 00:06:10,189 --> 00:06:08,039 military that is 147 00:06:12,110 --> 00:06:10,199 a very substantial military now so I 148 00:06:14,450 --> 00:06:12,120 think China is 149 00:06:17,210 --> 00:06:14,460 I I think it's their I would say their 150 00:06:20,570 --> 00:06:17,220 Fury over the recent Taiwan thing 151 00:06:23,029 --> 00:06:20,580 and they are now coming up with reasons 152 00:06:24,469 --> 00:06:23,039 to uh ratchet and also the other reason 153 00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:24,479 is that who's afraid of the United 154 00:06:31,189 --> 00:06:27,600 States anymore it does seem to be 155 00:06:34,070 --> 00:06:31,199 uh performance performative in in if I 156 00:06:37,249 --> 00:06:34,080 can use that word uh it seems to be a 157 00:06:38,809 --> 00:06:37,259 very a game and we're now learning that 158 00:06:41,570 --> 00:06:38,819 there's more balloons that have been 159 00:06:44,270 --> 00:06:41,580 spotted that the US has known about for 160 00:06:46,249 --> 00:06:44,280 a while in any that kind of plays into I 161 00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:46,259 guess the second half of that that 162 00:06:50,090 --> 00:06:47,280 question 163 00:06:52,730 --> 00:06:50,100 um we have this new office Arrow that's 164 00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:52,740 supposed to be in you know a resolution 165 00:06:58,249 --> 00:06:54,660 office figure out what these things are 166 00:07:00,770 --> 00:06:58,259 and if they're a threat and uh even in 167 00:07:02,809 --> 00:07:00,780 this current this recent Pentagon report 168 00:07:05,629 --> 00:07:02,819 we learned the term balloon-like 169 00:07:07,610 --> 00:07:05,639 entities and that could not be more 170 00:07:10,370 --> 00:07:07,620 telling than what we're seeing play out 171 00:07:12,170 --> 00:07:10,380 right now so what's a good point if 172 00:07:15,170 --> 00:07:12,180 anything does this have to do rich with 173 00:07:17,170 --> 00:07:15,180 UFOs anything what's striking about the 174 00:07:20,930 --> 00:07:17,180 conversation coming out of the military 175 00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:20,940 on UFOs or UAP now as they like to say 176 00:07:26,390 --> 00:07:24,900 is how utterly tepid it is and how they 177 00:07:28,189 --> 00:07:26,400 still have this pretense of saying 178 00:07:29,689 --> 00:07:28,199 things like well we're trying to 179 00:07:32,150 --> 00:07:29,699 understand what this is we're looking 180 00:07:33,950 --> 00:07:32,160 into it and when we find something out 181 00:07:35,150 --> 00:07:33,960 we'll let you people know like what are 182 00:07:36,589 --> 00:07:35,160 you talking about you've been dealing 183 00:07:39,770 --> 00:07:36,599 with this 184 00:07:42,170 --> 00:07:39,780 and highly dramatic uh shockingly 185 00:07:44,029 --> 00:07:42,180 dramatic ways for 80 years minimum 186 00:07:46,070 --> 00:07:44,039 we know this we have a detailed 187 00:07:49,010 --> 00:07:46,080 historical record of it we have a very 188 00:07:51,650 --> 00:07:49,020 good case for crash retrievals of UFOs 189 00:07:54,469 --> 00:07:51,660 on multiple occasions uh within the US 190 00:07:58,490 --> 00:07:54,479 and Beyond the US and I was just 191 00:08:01,309 --> 00:07:58,500 reviewing um the uh it was a old classic 192 00:08:04,010 --> 00:08:01,319 case from 1957 in Brazil the ubatuba 193 00:08:06,409 --> 00:08:04,020 case where an object was seen by 194 00:08:08,510 --> 00:08:06,419 beachgoers uh at the Brazilian Atlantic 195 00:08:10,129 --> 00:08:08,520 Coast coming in 196 00:08:11,809 --> 00:08:10,139 looking like it was going to crash it's 197 00:08:15,469 --> 00:08:11,819 shooting straight up and then exploding 198 00:08:16,969 --> 00:08:15,479 into uh hundreds of shards and pieces 199 00:08:19,790 --> 00:08:16,979 looking like fireworks 200 00:08:22,249 --> 00:08:19,800 uh in the aftermath of that the United 201 00:08:23,809 --> 00:08:22,259 States the U.S military came in I think 202 00:08:26,809 --> 00:08:23,819 it was like two or three days later the 203 00:08:29,270 --> 00:08:26,819 U.S has been on top of this situation 204 00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:29,280 since the beginning and so what we have 205 00:08:34,310 --> 00:08:32,580 from the Pentagon are these uh this 206 00:08:36,290 --> 00:08:34,320 pretense this game of pretend that they 207 00:08:38,209 --> 00:08:36,300 like to play which is okay well yeah 208 00:08:39,649 --> 00:08:38,219 we're looking into this and maybe there 209 00:08:41,269 --> 00:08:39,659 is something there 210 00:08:42,529 --> 00:08:41,279 this is kind of where we were in the 211 00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:42,539 1950s 212 00:08:48,050 --> 00:08:45,120 so that I guess what I'm saying is never 213 00:08:50,090 --> 00:08:48,060 ever expect honesty or good faith from 214 00:08:52,490 --> 00:08:50,100 the United States government on anything 215 00:08:54,110 --> 00:08:52,500 having to do with the matter of UFOs you 216 00:08:56,150 --> 00:08:54,120 may from time to time get a member of 217 00:08:58,850 --> 00:08:56,160 Congress who gets worked up and 218 00:09:01,009 --> 00:08:58,860 interested about this that can happen 219 00:09:05,389 --> 00:09:01,019 that is certainly possible but that's a 220 00:09:07,370 --> 00:09:05,399 that's a whole bit different from the 221 00:09:10,009 --> 00:09:07,380 institutional apparatus of the military 222 00:09:13,550 --> 00:09:10,019 the National Security State 223 00:09:15,530 --> 00:09:13,560 to do anything honest about this subject 224 00:09:17,210 --> 00:09:15,540 in terms of actually 225 00:09:19,009 --> 00:09:17,220 uh reporting to the public they're just 226 00:09:20,990 --> 00:09:19,019 they're never going to do it they'll 227 00:09:23,030 --> 00:09:21,000 never do this honestly I don't think you 228 00:09:26,410 --> 00:09:23,040 should ever expect anything out of them 229 00:09:29,509 --> 00:09:26,420 unless they are pushed to the wall 230 00:09:30,769 --> 00:09:29,519 by either a leak or some kind of 231 00:09:33,710 --> 00:09:30,779 information that comes out that's 232 00:09:35,750 --> 00:09:33,720 unexpected that forces a statement from 233 00:09:37,550 --> 00:09:35,760 them in which case 234 00:09:40,370 --> 00:09:37,560 the pattern has always been that they 235 00:09:42,170 --> 00:09:40,380 will give as absolutely little as they 236 00:09:44,269 --> 00:09:42,180 have to before they can just run away 237 00:09:46,970 --> 00:09:44,279 from the subject and that's what even in 238 00:09:49,070 --> 00:09:46,980 the last five years we've seen this 239 00:09:51,949 --> 00:09:49,080 um we may want to get into this if you 240 00:09:54,230 --> 00:09:51,959 want but I I'm not one of these people 241 00:09:56,449 --> 00:09:54,240 who believes that the two original New 242 00:09:58,430 --> 00:09:56,459 York Times stories were an initiated 243 00:10:00,829 --> 00:09:58,440 deep State operation 244 00:10:03,230 --> 00:10:00,839 I think that that was a reflective 245 00:10:05,389 --> 00:10:03,240 reaction to something that was going to 246 00:10:08,329 --> 00:10:05,399 come out you know your ttsa back in 247 00:10:09,829 --> 00:10:08,339 October of 2017. 248 00:10:11,509 --> 00:10:09,839 um making their announcement that 249 00:10:13,190 --> 00:10:11,519 they're an organization you had Elizondo 250 00:10:15,769 --> 00:10:13,200 and melon in the background getting the 251 00:10:17,570 --> 00:10:15,779 uh three of the videos Declassified that 252 00:10:19,310 --> 00:10:17,580 was a real score by the way 253 00:10:20,930 --> 00:10:19,320 they had friends and they had enemies 254 00:10:23,150 --> 00:10:20,940 within the Pentagon and they used their 255 00:10:25,130 --> 00:10:23,160 friends to get that Declassified my 256 00:10:26,750 --> 00:10:25,140 point is at the New York Times article 257 00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:26,760 in my view 258 00:10:29,990 --> 00:10:28,800 was uh 259 00:10:32,030 --> 00:10:30,000 something that Leslie came about 260 00:10:33,590 --> 00:10:32,040 Blumenthal lobbied to get done that is 261 00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:33,600 true but I think the New York Times 262 00:10:37,130 --> 00:10:35,279 leadership decided you know what the 263 00:10:38,389 --> 00:10:37,140 story is going to come out why don't we 264 00:10:40,130 --> 00:10:38,399 be the ones who break it we'll get out 265 00:10:41,870 --> 00:10:40,140 in front of it and I think that's what 266 00:10:44,030 --> 00:10:41,880 happened and I think what you've seen 267 00:10:46,009 --> 00:10:44,040 since then is the Deep State or the 268 00:10:48,590 --> 00:10:46,019 National Security State 269 00:10:51,230 --> 00:10:48,600 uh very effectively very effectively 270 00:10:52,850 --> 00:10:51,240 responding to this uh and slowly but 271 00:10:55,009 --> 00:10:52,860 surely taking control of it a narrative 272 00:10:56,930 --> 00:10:55,019 once again as they are used to doing so 273 00:10:58,490 --> 00:10:56,940 they've given up a little bit they 274 00:10:59,690 --> 00:10:58,500 they've now you know more than five 275 00:11:01,430 --> 00:10:59,700 years ago 276 00:11:04,610 --> 00:11:01,440 they would play this other game of 277 00:11:05,750 --> 00:11:04,620 pretend like there's no UFOs we we don't 278 00:11:07,610 --> 00:11:05,760 notice anything yet there's nothing 279 00:11:09,949 --> 00:11:07,620 remember you know 10 years ago Steve 280 00:11:11,230 --> 00:11:09,959 Bassett did his 281 00:11:13,550 --> 00:11:11,240 um what the hell was that called a 282 00:11:16,610 --> 00:11:13,560 disclosure petition to the Obama White 283 00:11:19,550 --> 00:11:16,620 House back then right yeah and the and 284 00:11:22,130 --> 00:11:19,560 the answer that he got was 285 00:11:23,930 --> 00:11:22,140 a classic lie right out of the Obama 286 00:11:25,790 --> 00:11:23,940 White House which is that we've seen no 287 00:11:27,290 --> 00:11:25,800 evidence whatsoever of any UFOs that are 288 00:11:29,150 --> 00:11:27,300 anything unusual when at the same time 289 00:11:31,250 --> 00:11:29,160 they had the the 290 00:11:32,329 --> 00:11:31,260 um atip office that was running at that 291 00:11:36,350 --> 00:11:32,339 very time 292 00:11:38,269 --> 00:11:36,360 that was investigating UFOs but they lie 293 00:11:40,610 --> 00:11:38,279 they lie at every opportunity they can 294 00:11:42,410 --> 00:11:40,620 and when then that lie no longer is 295 00:11:43,430 --> 00:11:42,420 tenable they they come to a different 296 00:11:44,810 --> 00:11:43,440 position 297 00:11:47,509 --> 00:11:44,820 and I think that's all what we're seeing 298 00:11:49,130 --> 00:11:47,519 so with arrow I'm 299 00:11:51,350 --> 00:11:49,140 you know there are people who say well 300 00:11:53,329 --> 00:11:51,360 you know there's witness protection 301 00:11:55,250 --> 00:11:53,339 um measures that are inside there which 302 00:11:57,170 --> 00:11:55,260 is true there is 303 00:11:59,090 --> 00:11:57,180 there are these measures that are that 304 00:12:00,769 --> 00:11:59,100 are in place so will that make a 305 00:12:04,250 --> 00:12:00,779 difference we'll have to wait and see 306 00:12:06,829 --> 00:12:04,260 it's possible it's also possible that 307 00:12:08,389 --> 00:12:06,839 this will be a whole lot of 308 00:12:11,030 --> 00:12:08,399 smoke and mirrors 309 00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:11,040 so I'm I'm not at a point where I will 310 00:12:15,829 --> 00:12:13,920 ever trust the this 311 00:12:17,329 --> 00:12:15,839 these government bureaucracies until 312 00:12:18,710 --> 00:12:17,339 they actually show otherwise and they 313 00:12:20,630 --> 00:12:18,720 haven't yet 314 00:12:21,949 --> 00:12:20,640 so I mean think of all of the the 315 00:12:23,150 --> 00:12:21,959 so-called reports that we've had up 316 00:12:26,690 --> 00:12:23,160 until now in the last couple of years 317 00:12:28,670 --> 00:12:26,700 first was 144 UAP sightings then last 318 00:12:30,650 --> 00:12:28,680 year it was well we were up to over 400. 319 00:12:33,310 --> 00:12:30,660 have we gotten any details about any 320 00:12:35,150 --> 00:12:33,320 single one of them no not a single case 321 00:12:37,610 --> 00:12:35,160 not one 322 00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:37,620 yeah that one so this is how they 323 00:12:42,590 --> 00:12:40,560 operate and they obviously know that 324 00:12:44,690 --> 00:12:42,600 they have a sufficient 325 00:12:46,009 --> 00:12:44,700 control and cooperation with the 326 00:12:47,269 --> 00:12:46,019 mainstream media 327 00:12:48,829 --> 00:12:47,279 they're not getting pushed on this 328 00:12:50,750 --> 00:12:48,839 they're not getting pressured no one in 329 00:12:53,210 --> 00:12:50,760 Congress is really pushing back here and 330 00:12:56,930 --> 00:12:53,220 there a couple of Congress members are 331 00:12:59,030 --> 00:12:56,940 you know pushing just mildly but nothing 332 00:13:01,850 --> 00:12:59,040 nothing significant 333 00:13:02,990 --> 00:13:01,860 so I don't I don't expect anything out 334 00:13:06,530 --> 00:13:03,000 of Arrow 335 00:13:09,530 --> 00:13:06,540 I would have be I'd love to be wrong so 336 00:13:12,970 --> 00:13:09,540 let us wait and see but so far they are 337 00:13:16,069 --> 00:13:12,980 unfortunately fulfilling my prophecies 338 00:13:18,290 --> 00:13:16,079 you and me both I know I think it's been 339 00:13:20,569 --> 00:13:18,300 uh it's been an interesting Journey 340 00:13:22,850 --> 00:13:20,579 since that article came out I don't know 341 00:13:24,410 --> 00:13:22,860 what to make of any of it but you're 342 00:13:26,750 --> 00:13:24,420 right we'll have to wait and see 343 00:13:28,310 --> 00:13:26,760 um well that kind of brings us up to 344 00:13:29,990 --> 00:13:28,320 current day the other current day thing 345 00:13:33,650 --> 00:13:30,000 I wanted to touch on before I move to 346 00:13:37,790 --> 00:13:33,660 our amazing listener questions that I 347 00:13:40,670 --> 00:13:37,800 had to narrow down profusely uh is UFOs 348 00:13:43,970 --> 00:13:40,680 for the 21st century mind uh the up the 349 00:13:47,449 --> 00:13:43,980 updated Expanded Edition of the book 350 00:13:50,629 --> 00:13:47,459 um 17 new pages right uh let us know 351 00:13:53,090 --> 00:13:50,639 what what's what's new in it uh what 352 00:13:55,610 --> 00:13:53,100 have you learned since the original came 353 00:13:58,009 --> 00:13:55,620 out and what can people expect in the uh 354 00:13:59,629 --> 00:13:58,019 the updated version if you don't mind oh 355 00:14:02,210 --> 00:13:59,639 yeah thanks for asking that was a nice 356 00:14:04,970 --> 00:14:02,220 surprise it's it's uh as you just said 357 00:14:07,430 --> 00:14:04,980 it's about 70 new pages that the 358 00:14:11,449 --> 00:14:07,440 original did not have nearly all of that 359 00:14:14,930 --> 00:14:11,459 is to update the last decade or so of 360 00:14:16,370 --> 00:14:14,940 UFO history so I wrote a very very long 361 00:14:20,329 --> 00:14:16,380 chapter 362 00:14:23,629 --> 00:14:20,339 book now I believe covering uh the 363 00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:23,639 entire UFO subject from 2013 through the 364 00:14:27,889 --> 00:14:26,880 very end of 2022 so just uh a month and 365 00:14:31,370 --> 00:14:27,899 a half ago 366 00:14:34,490 --> 00:14:31,380 so it takes the story fully I think very 367 00:14:36,350 --> 00:14:34,500 well up to date to be honest it covered 368 00:14:38,569 --> 00:14:36,360 um 369 00:14:41,689 --> 00:14:38,579 you know where where the UFO field was 370 00:14:43,430 --> 00:14:41,699 in 2013 2014 just before things really 371 00:14:44,810 --> 00:14:43,440 started to change a bit in the public 372 00:14:47,689 --> 00:14:44,820 Realm 373 00:14:51,889 --> 00:14:47,699 I had a lot to say about the events of 374 00:14:53,689 --> 00:14:51,899 2017 and the coverage that transformed 375 00:14:56,210 --> 00:14:53,699 the public debate on UFOs 376 00:14:58,189 --> 00:14:56,220 and uh 377 00:15:00,730 --> 00:14:58,199 covered a lot of that in a lot of detail 378 00:15:03,710 --> 00:15:00,740 actually the politics event and so forth 379 00:15:05,509 --> 00:15:03,720 uh talked about some interesting recent 380 00:15:07,910 --> 00:15:05,519 UFO sightings in the last decade that 381 00:15:10,129 --> 00:15:07,920 some of which most of which are really 382 00:15:12,410 --> 00:15:10,139 not well known but uh are interesting 383 00:15:14,090 --> 00:15:12,420 and I wanted to just discuss to talk 384 00:15:16,370 --> 00:15:14,100 about you know what how is the 385 00:15:19,490 --> 00:15:16,380 phenomenon continuing today 386 00:15:22,310 --> 00:15:19,500 and then I did a kind of revised look at 387 00:15:24,530 --> 00:15:22,320 our trajectory as a society and where I 388 00:15:25,670 --> 00:15:24,540 think we're headed as opposed to a 389 00:15:27,410 --> 00:15:25,680 decade ago when I wrote the first 390 00:15:30,530 --> 00:15:27,420 edition of that book 391 00:15:32,150 --> 00:15:30,540 so um one of the main things that I have 392 00:15:34,129 --> 00:15:32,160 argued 393 00:15:34,970 --> 00:15:34,139 I put this actually in my other recent 394 00:15:36,829 --> 00:15:34,980 book 395 00:15:38,930 --> 00:15:36,839 um the alien agendas 396 00:15:40,970 --> 00:15:38,940 I I firmly believe we are in the middle 397 00:15:42,350 --> 00:15:40,980 of a global Revolution that's going on 398 00:15:44,569 --> 00:15:42,360 right now 399 00:15:46,550 --> 00:15:44,579 and that has an effect on the UFO 400 00:15:48,050 --> 00:15:46,560 subject by global Revolution I simply 401 00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:48,060 mean a 402 00:15:52,970 --> 00:15:50,160 um how do I put it a centrally organized 403 00:15:54,710 --> 00:15:52,980 coordinated International Revolution 404 00:15:58,189 --> 00:15:54,720 mostly against the people against 405 00:16:00,050 --> 00:15:58,199 traditional rights that we've had uh you 406 00:16:02,410 --> 00:16:00,060 know I I don't how do I do I need to 407 00:16:05,629 --> 00:16:02,420 explain this anymore basically a 24 7 408 00:16:08,689 --> 00:16:05,639 panopticon surveillance state 409 00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:08,699 um is one aspect of it and there's a lot 410 00:16:12,110 --> 00:16:10,380 of other aspects going on there I think 411 00:16:14,629 --> 00:16:12,120 we're looking at the Advent of very 412 00:16:16,430 --> 00:16:14,639 strong AI that is a component of it but 413 00:16:18,470 --> 00:16:16,440 what we're seeing is a an intentional 414 00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:18,480 reorganic reorganization of human 415 00:16:23,090 --> 00:16:20,720 society in a very different way 416 00:16:26,030 --> 00:16:23,100 essentially turning us into 417 00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:26,040 um kind of a big technological anthill 418 00:16:30,069 --> 00:16:28,160 and so that being the case 419 00:16:32,750 --> 00:16:30,079 massive 420 00:16:34,850 --> 00:16:32,760 Global changes have to happen to the 421 00:16:37,610 --> 00:16:34,860 social structure to the intellectual to 422 00:16:39,530 --> 00:16:37,620 our psychology to our politics to our 423 00:16:40,730 --> 00:16:39,540 rights and you see this happening you 424 00:16:43,189 --> 00:16:40,740 know covet was a very perfect 425 00:16:46,009 --> 00:16:43,199 opportunity for them to do that 426 00:16:47,689 --> 00:16:46,019 but um they'll take any opportunity they 427 00:16:49,610 --> 00:16:47,699 can the current war in Ukraine and 428 00:16:51,889 --> 00:16:49,620 Russia I think will offer offer its own 429 00:16:54,110 --> 00:16:51,899 opportunities to further this revolution 430 00:16:57,050 --> 00:16:54,120 and the reason that I I'm bringing it up 431 00:16:59,269 --> 00:16:57,060 here I talk about it in the revised UFOs 432 00:17:01,490 --> 00:16:59,279 for the 21st century mine but it's 433 00:17:04,370 --> 00:17:01,500 important because when you are moving 434 00:17:06,730 --> 00:17:04,380 into a very 435 00:17:09,350 --> 00:17:06,740 potentially dark 436 00:17:11,150 --> 00:17:09,360 quasi-totalitarian Global Society you 437 00:17:13,610 --> 00:17:11,160 have to ask yourself how does that 438 00:17:15,289 --> 00:17:13,620 affect the UFO conversation 439 00:17:17,030 --> 00:17:15,299 and I think it does have an effect on 440 00:17:19,689 --> 00:17:17,040 the UFO conversation so what I think 441 00:17:23,990 --> 00:17:19,699 we're seeing is in the public 442 00:17:26,390 --> 00:17:24,000 establishment domain it is now okay 443 00:17:28,850 --> 00:17:26,400 to ask you know the basic tepid 444 00:17:30,590 --> 00:17:28,860 questions so like hmm is there something 445 00:17:32,810 --> 00:17:30,600 out there maybe there is something out 446 00:17:34,310 --> 00:17:32,820 there let's look into it you know that 447 00:17:37,370 --> 00:17:34,320 level that's okay 448 00:17:39,710 --> 00:17:37,380 that's okay what's not okay is to go 449 00:17:42,470 --> 00:17:39,720 over the red line into conspiracy 450 00:17:44,450 --> 00:17:42,480 accusations and cover up accusations and 451 00:17:46,370 --> 00:17:44,460 and so into a deep analysis and the 452 00:17:47,870 --> 00:17:46,380 reason that that's not permitted and you 453 00:17:52,190 --> 00:17:47,880 can see that this is still all these 454 00:17:55,370 --> 00:17:52,200 years now into this new era or in 2023 455 00:17:58,250 --> 00:17:55,380 and we are still in it is impossible 456 00:17:59,690 --> 00:17:58,260 to have an open discussion on the 457 00:18:01,490 --> 00:17:59,700 structure of the UFO cover-up and 458 00:18:03,409 --> 00:18:01,500 conspiracy International conspiracy of 459 00:18:05,570 --> 00:18:03,419 silence and the reason for that is that 460 00:18:08,330 --> 00:18:05,580 because we are now in an era in which 461 00:18:11,029 --> 00:18:08,340 you and I are not supposed to believe in 462 00:18:13,190 --> 00:18:11,039 conspiracy theories we all know this 463 00:18:16,310 --> 00:18:13,200 what what is a bigger conspiracy theory 464 00:18:19,190 --> 00:18:16,320 frankly than the UFO cover-up I ask you 465 00:18:22,549 --> 00:18:19,200 probably not anything or it's right up 466 00:18:25,010 --> 00:18:22,559 there so can you imagine uh 467 00:18:27,049 --> 00:18:25,020 President Joe Biden saying well yeah the 468 00:18:29,029 --> 00:18:27,059 UFO thing that's that's real but don't 469 00:18:30,770 --> 00:18:29,039 believe in the other conspiracy theories 470 00:18:33,890 --> 00:18:30,780 even though we lied to you on this like 471 00:18:35,870 --> 00:18:33,900 massive one uh yeah that's kind of true 472 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:35,880 uh but don't believe in the others they 473 00:18:40,970 --> 00:18:38,160 cannot do that it's absolutely not 474 00:18:43,970 --> 00:18:40,980 tenable so the UFO 475 00:18:45,770 --> 00:18:43,980 conspiracy angle must be suppressed at 476 00:18:47,870 --> 00:18:45,780 all costs and you can see this is 477 00:18:50,450 --> 00:18:47,880 continuing what's happening there's been 478 00:18:52,549 --> 00:18:50,460 some some tension along those lines if 479 00:18:54,230 --> 00:18:52,559 you go back to 2020 480 00:18:56,210 --> 00:18:54,240 uh one of the New York Times articles 481 00:19:00,289 --> 00:18:56,220 that Leslie and Ralph put out was in 482 00:19:04,190 --> 00:19:00,299 July of 2020. they came this close 483 00:19:05,529 --> 00:19:04,200 to uh in that one admission they had by 484 00:19:07,789 --> 00:19:05,539 Dr Eric Davis 485 00:19:10,310 --> 00:19:07,799 very close to admitting that there were 486 00:19:11,930 --> 00:19:10,320 actual crash retrievals of UFOs but they 487 00:19:14,150 --> 00:19:11,940 didn't step over the line 488 00:19:15,650 --> 00:19:14,160 and you've noticed nobody has approached 489 00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:15,660 that line since not within the 490 00:19:19,730 --> 00:19:17,280 establishment culture anyway 491 00:19:21,529 --> 00:19:19,740 so that's I think is a red line and I 492 00:19:23,810 --> 00:19:21,539 think the global Revolution that we're 493 00:19:26,690 --> 00:19:23,820 going through is in the process of 494 00:19:28,310 --> 00:19:26,700 attempting to transform Human Society at 495 00:19:30,289 --> 00:19:28,320 a very fundamental level into one of 496 00:19:32,150 --> 00:19:30,299 very tight control 497 00:19:33,529 --> 00:19:32,160 we're moving into an era of great great 498 00:19:36,710 --> 00:19:33,539 control 499 00:19:38,870 --> 00:19:36,720 so that it's going to be 500 00:19:41,510 --> 00:19:38,880 the real interesting thing to see from 501 00:19:43,190 --> 00:19:41,520 moving here forward is 502 00:19:44,450 --> 00:19:43,200 how will that tension resolve itself 503 00:19:46,669 --> 00:19:44,460 well 504 00:19:48,289 --> 00:19:46,679 will the hammer come down fully will the 505 00:19:50,990 --> 00:19:48,299 lid come down fully and be screwed down 506 00:19:54,230 --> 00:19:51,000 so that there will never be a genuine 507 00:19:56,990 --> 00:19:54,240 conversation about the UFO conspiracy 508 00:19:58,669 --> 00:19:57,000 or will it be a breakthrough somehow 509 00:20:01,430 --> 00:19:58,679 that is really the question we need to 510 00:20:03,350 --> 00:20:01,440 be looking at because all signs point to 511 00:20:06,830 --> 00:20:03,360 the attempts by the National Security 512 00:20:10,430 --> 00:20:06,840 International Security apparatus to 513 00:20:12,470 --> 00:20:10,440 keep this subject safe and defanged for 514 00:20:13,909 --> 00:20:12,480 as long as humanly possible 515 00:20:15,770 --> 00:20:13,919 if they can keep it going for another 516 00:20:17,870 --> 00:20:15,780 five years they'll do that if they can 517 00:20:20,090 --> 00:20:17,880 keep it going for 50 years for a hundred 518 00:20:21,890 --> 00:20:20,100 years or more they will do that as well 519 00:20:24,289 --> 00:20:21,900 they will keep this 520 00:20:25,850 --> 00:20:24,299 uh they will keep the fundamental truths 521 00:20:27,770 --> 00:20:25,860 away from the public for as long as 522 00:20:29,750 --> 00:20:27,780 absolutely possible that's what I 523 00:20:32,210 --> 00:20:29,760 believe 524 00:20:35,390 --> 00:20:32,220 interesting well I look forward to 525 00:20:37,850 --> 00:20:35,400 reading the updated Edition uh to learn 526 00:20:41,029 --> 00:20:37,860 more about that for sure rich thank you 527 00:20:43,130 --> 00:20:41,039 um well let's let's move to these 528 00:20:45,230 --> 00:20:43,140 listener questions uh because we've got 529 00:20:48,289 --> 00:20:45,240 a lot a lot to cover 530 00:20:51,169 --> 00:20:48,299 um sort of every aspect of ethology I 531 00:20:53,690 --> 00:20:51,179 try to condense into these questions for 532 00:20:55,909 --> 00:20:53,700 you so this should be pretty fun 533 00:20:57,830 --> 00:20:55,919 um our first few questions come from our 534 00:20:59,029 --> 00:20:57,840 patrons who get priority to ask you 535 00:21:01,250 --> 00:20:59,039 questions 536 00:21:04,190 --> 00:21:01,260 um and then you are kind enough to stick 537 00:21:06,049 --> 00:21:04,200 around uh over on patreon to answer a 538 00:21:08,630 --> 00:21:06,059 few more of their questions so I 539 00:21:11,029 --> 00:21:08,640 appreciate you doing that too but um our 540 00:21:13,370 --> 00:21:11,039 first one here comes from metal matte on 541 00:21:15,650 --> 00:21:13,380 patreon and Anthony actually on Twitter 542 00:21:17,870 --> 00:21:15,660 they had a very similar question what do 543 00:21:19,490 --> 00:21:17,880 you think about the details of the 544 00:21:23,270 --> 00:21:19,500 Nimitz case and what do you think the 545 00:21:25,130 --> 00:21:23,280 Tic Tacs may have been I mean still to 546 00:21:26,990 --> 00:21:25,140 this day we're wondering 547 00:21:30,590 --> 00:21:27,000 um do you have any personal thoughts or 548 00:21:32,330 --> 00:21:30,600 or observations of what these objects 549 00:21:34,909 --> 00:21:32,340 might have been this case that we've 550 00:21:37,909 --> 00:21:34,919 kind of held up to such high esteem for 551 00:21:40,549 --> 00:21:37,919 the past five years or so yes yeah I do 552 00:21:41,990 --> 00:21:40,559 so first thing is to recognize the year 553 00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:42,000 in which this event occurred so it was 554 00:21:48,950 --> 00:21:44,400 November of 2004. 555 00:21:51,830 --> 00:21:48,960 so uh let's just do a little bit of 556 00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:51,840 uh checking off the the list and and uh 557 00:21:55,730 --> 00:21:54,240 checking off who could be a suspect and 558 00:21:57,350 --> 00:21:55,740 who could not so let's look at 559 00:21:59,330 --> 00:21:57,360 International Powers first Russia and 560 00:22:01,730 --> 00:21:59,340 China come to mind 561 00:22:03,649 --> 00:22:01,740 uh you know the US and and Russia and 562 00:22:05,750 --> 00:22:03,659 the US and China are essentially enemies 563 00:22:08,450 --> 00:22:05,760 we're not even adversaries anymore 564 00:22:12,350 --> 00:22:08,460 but in 2004 this was not the case uh in 565 00:22:14,270 --> 00:22:12,360 2004 uh Russia was trying actively to 566 00:22:16,250 --> 00:22:14,280 join NATO this is kind of a forgotten 567 00:22:18,470 --> 00:22:16,260 thing and the U.S basically made sure 568 00:22:21,409 --> 00:22:18,480 that did not happen but Russia under 569 00:22:23,390 --> 00:22:21,419 Putin at that time was very much trying 570 00:22:25,490 --> 00:22:23,400 to work with the West on a hall of range 571 00:22:28,370 --> 00:22:25,500 range of issues 572 00:22:30,049 --> 00:22:28,380 and uh furthermore Russia's military was 573 00:22:32,690 --> 00:22:30,059 probably at the lowest point it had ever 574 00:22:35,029 --> 00:22:32,700 been around that time they were not 575 00:22:36,590 --> 00:22:35,039 they're much much more potent now but 576 00:22:38,990 --> 00:22:36,600 not in 2004. 577 00:22:40,010 --> 00:22:39,000 so I think it's absolutely out of the 578 00:22:41,570 --> 00:22:40,020 question that Russia would have had 579 00:22:43,549 --> 00:22:41,580 anything to do with that and I would say 580 00:22:47,149 --> 00:22:43,559 the same regarding China 581 00:22:48,950 --> 00:22:47,159 uh China in 2004 was a growing power 582 00:22:50,930 --> 00:22:48,960 they were growing economically they were 583 00:22:53,149 --> 00:22:50,940 working on their military but uh to say 584 00:22:55,669 --> 00:22:53,159 that they had Tick Tock you Tic Tac UFO 585 00:22:57,230 --> 00:22:55,679 technology I think would be absurd and 586 00:22:59,690 --> 00:22:57,240 there's absolutely nothing to support 587 00:23:01,610 --> 00:22:59,700 that so I would leave out uh foreign 588 00:23:03,049 --> 00:23:01,620 adversaries and you know there's no no 589 00:23:05,029 --> 00:23:03,059 other nation that you could really 590 00:23:06,770 --> 00:23:05,039 imagine that would possibly have done 591 00:23:08,450 --> 00:23:06,780 that so then you ask about U.S black 592 00:23:11,029 --> 00:23:08,460 budget capabilities and this is 593 00:23:13,669 --> 00:23:11,039 something that people have wondered 594 00:23:15,470 --> 00:23:13,679 I wonder sometimes I don't think so I 595 00:23:17,090 --> 00:23:15,480 don't believe that this is uh part of 596 00:23:19,070 --> 00:23:17,100 like a breakaway civilization or 597 00:23:21,710 --> 00:23:19,080 Advanced black budget for a few reasons 598 00:23:24,289 --> 00:23:21,720 one that uh 599 00:23:25,669 --> 00:23:24,299 you know as we know that the details of 600 00:23:28,549 --> 00:23:25,679 this story you have Kevin Day who ran 601 00:23:30,289 --> 00:23:28,559 radar over at the US's Princeton as part 602 00:23:32,990 --> 00:23:30,299 of the Nimitz battle group there 603 00:23:36,049 --> 00:23:33,000 had been tracking these UAP UFOs in the 604 00:23:39,770 --> 00:23:36,059 atmosphere for several weeks 605 00:23:43,210 --> 00:23:39,780 uh multiple ones not just one object 606 00:23:47,630 --> 00:23:43,220 there's large numbers of them they were 607 00:23:49,310 --> 00:23:47,640 hanging around if we could say uh in the 608 00:23:50,750 --> 00:23:49,320 area where the U.S was conducting war 609 00:23:53,090 --> 00:23:50,760 war exercises 610 00:23:55,490 --> 00:23:53,100 in the Pacific 611 00:23:58,370 --> 00:23:55,500 so it seems to have been 612 00:24:01,130 --> 00:23:58,380 a kind of observational thing uh kind of 613 00:24:02,690 --> 00:24:01,140 a monitoring thing I mean we're guessing 614 00:24:03,830 --> 00:24:02,700 here but there was certainly a lot of 615 00:24:05,690 --> 00:24:03,840 activity 616 00:24:07,909 --> 00:24:05,700 uh the other thing that you want to keep 617 00:24:11,450 --> 00:24:07,919 in mind is that when 618 00:24:14,510 --> 00:24:11,460 uh fravers uh Team were vectored in to 619 00:24:15,950 --> 00:24:14,520 examine this unknown object that you 620 00:24:17,690 --> 00:24:15,960 know now we're on November 14th Kevin 621 00:24:19,430 --> 00:24:17,700 Day sees him again he's like ah they're 622 00:24:22,070 --> 00:24:19,440 out there we've got a couple of fa-18 623 00:24:23,270 --> 00:24:22,080 super Hornets let's see if we can Vector 624 00:24:26,510 --> 00:24:23,280 them in so 625 00:24:29,690 --> 00:24:26,520 uh the the two aircraft get there 626 00:24:32,270 --> 00:24:29,700 and they didn't just see one object 627 00:24:35,510 --> 00:24:32,280 above the water the Tic Tac UFO there 628 00:24:37,970 --> 00:24:35,520 was a larger object below the water 629 00:24:39,470 --> 00:24:37,980 according to the accounts that have come 630 00:24:43,310 --> 00:24:39,480 to us 631 00:24:44,330 --> 00:24:43,320 so we're talking a an explicit Uso that 632 00:24:46,490 --> 00:24:44,340 was there 633 00:24:49,070 --> 00:24:46,500 as well as this other object 634 00:24:51,830 --> 00:24:49,080 so if we're talking 635 00:24:53,690 --> 00:24:51,840 a very Advanced black budget 636 00:24:55,610 --> 00:24:53,700 this is this is beyond anything that 637 00:24:59,029 --> 00:24:55,620 I've even had any reason to think that 638 00:25:01,970 --> 00:24:59,039 we can do in terms of Uso technology and 639 00:25:04,370 --> 00:25:01,980 and the like and then you know the 640 00:25:06,049 --> 00:25:04,380 entire confrontational attitude that 641 00:25:09,770 --> 00:25:06,059 happened 642 00:25:12,590 --> 00:25:09,780 that in Pursuit at ensued excuse me 643 00:25:14,570 --> 00:25:12,600 uh it just doesn't look like a black 644 00:25:16,190 --> 00:25:14,580 budget operation to me because frankly 645 00:25:21,710 --> 00:25:16,200 the 646 00:25:23,769 --> 00:25:21,720 absolutely in line with capabilities 647 00:25:26,930 --> 00:25:23,779 that the US military has been recording 648 00:25:29,390 --> 00:25:26,940 explicitly since the 1940s 649 00:25:31,549 --> 00:25:29,400 uh the the speed with which the Tic Tac 650 00:25:32,810 --> 00:25:31,559 departed I estimate to be in the 651 00:25:34,909 --> 00:25:32,820 neighborhood of ten thousand miles per 652 00:25:38,210 --> 00:25:34,919 hour maybe more but guess what we have 653 00:25:40,909 --> 00:25:38,220 we have documents from the 1940s that 654 00:25:43,190 --> 00:25:40,919 are military documents that discuss the 655 00:25:45,470 --> 00:25:43,200 tracking of these objects at comparable 656 00:25:49,010 --> 00:25:45,480 speeds way back then 657 00:25:51,230 --> 00:25:49,020 70 to almost 80 years ago 658 00:25:53,750 --> 00:25:51,240 so in other words the Tic Tac encounter 659 00:25:56,990 --> 00:25:53,760 is part of a long-standing 660 00:25:58,490 --> 00:25:57,000 pattern of encounters that the United 661 00:26:01,430 --> 00:25:58,500 States military has had with these 662 00:26:03,769 --> 00:26:01,440 objects and let's remember not just the 663 00:26:06,590 --> 00:26:03,779 United States military but militaries of 664 00:26:08,330 --> 00:26:06,600 other nations the old Soviet Union and 665 00:26:09,830 --> 00:26:08,340 all of the western allies you can think 666 00:26:12,190 --> 00:26:09,840 of have had these types of encounters 667 00:26:15,049 --> 00:26:12,200 with objects of comparable 668 00:26:17,450 --> 00:26:15,059 performance capabilities so 669 00:26:19,730 --> 00:26:17,460 what does that leave us that leaves me 670 00:26:21,769 --> 00:26:19,740 thinking we are dealing with a 671 00:26:23,870 --> 00:26:21,779 technology that does not come from our 672 00:26:26,510 --> 00:26:23,880 civilization that's what I believe I 673 00:26:29,390 --> 00:26:26,520 think the Tic Tac UFO was not made by us 674 00:26:31,430 --> 00:26:29,400 whether American Russian Chinese or any 675 00:26:33,950 --> 00:26:31,440 other civilization that we know of on 676 00:26:36,649 --> 00:26:33,960 Earth and was in fact 677 00:26:39,049 --> 00:26:36,659 is the product of 678 00:26:40,850 --> 00:26:39,059 a civilization that is more advanced and 679 00:26:42,409 --> 00:26:40,860 that presumably is not not from here 680 00:26:45,529 --> 00:26:42,419 that's what I think 681 00:26:48,350 --> 00:26:45,539 okay thank you uh well you did mention 682 00:26:50,690 --> 00:26:48,360 the term Breakaway civilization which is 683 00:26:53,990 --> 00:26:50,700 basically a term that you coined in your 684 00:26:56,690 --> 00:26:54,000 early research and and work and uh mark 685 00:26:57,950 --> 00:26:56,700 on patreon asks you used to have quite a 686 00:26:59,750 --> 00:26:57,960 strong belief about Breakaway 687 00:27:01,610 --> 00:26:59,760 civilization is it something you still 688 00:27:03,890 --> 00:27:01,620 believe in or have you altered your 689 00:27:05,269 --> 00:27:03,900 thinking on that subject at all that's a 690 00:27:07,490 --> 00:27:05,279 great question 691 00:27:09,710 --> 00:27:07,500 no I still believe that there is 692 00:27:11,750 --> 00:27:09,720 something along these lines maybe what's 693 00:27:15,169 --> 00:27:11,760 altered is 694 00:27:16,850 --> 00:27:15,179 or maybe what's become a little more 695 00:27:20,210 --> 00:27:16,860 uh where I become a little more cautious 696 00:27:23,450 --> 00:27:20,220 is in drawing conclusions as to just how 697 00:27:25,909 --> 00:27:23,460 advanced I think it is so what I think 698 00:27:30,529 --> 00:27:25,919 is that yes there is 699 00:27:32,930 --> 00:27:30,539 very uh deeply classified science a lot 700 00:27:34,490 --> 00:27:32,940 of which has to do with the recovery of 701 00:27:38,330 --> 00:27:34,500 these 702 00:27:40,970 --> 00:27:38,340 crashed or downed or landed UFOs 703 00:27:42,890 --> 00:27:40,980 and what that means is 704 00:27:45,289 --> 00:27:42,900 uh you know the possession of something 705 00:27:47,090 --> 00:27:45,299 so utterly advanced 706 00:27:49,310 --> 00:27:47,100 in the opinion of the the people 707 00:27:52,370 --> 00:27:49,320 controlling the secret is of such 708 00:27:54,110 --> 00:27:52,380 Paramount secrecy that there is just no 709 00:27:56,570 --> 00:27:54,120 way this can be allowed to seep out and 710 00:27:58,310 --> 00:27:56,580 so you have uh essentially a secret 711 00:28:02,269 --> 00:27:58,320 scientific effort going on to understand 712 00:28:03,769 --> 00:28:02,279 this and so a secret science can lead to 713 00:28:06,769 --> 00:28:03,779 secret breakthroughs of understanding 714 00:28:09,169 --> 00:28:06,779 which themselves 715 00:28:11,870 --> 00:28:09,179 um may have to be kept secret unless you 716 00:28:13,970 --> 00:28:11,880 can find a safe way to kind of segue 717 00:28:16,310 --> 00:28:13,980 them into uh into the public so it's 718 00:28:17,690 --> 00:28:16,320 very easy to lead to very highly 719 00:28:19,250 --> 00:28:17,700 Advanced capabilities within a 720 00:28:20,630 --> 00:28:19,260 classified world and that's really the 721 00:28:22,909 --> 00:28:20,640 foundation of what I call a breakaway 722 00:28:24,710 --> 00:28:22,919 civilization so I still think that that 723 00:28:27,169 --> 00:28:24,720 is true the 724 00:28:30,470 --> 00:28:27,179 thing that I will be a little more 725 00:28:31,850 --> 00:28:30,480 careful about are unsu relating to some 726 00:28:34,190 --> 00:28:31,860 of the more exotic 727 00:28:35,930 --> 00:28:34,200 capabilities that might exist so when we 728 00:28:37,430 --> 00:28:35,940 talk about portals we talk about time 729 00:28:39,409 --> 00:28:37,440 travel we talk about 730 00:28:42,049 --> 00:28:39,419 you know zipping across the Galaxy 731 00:28:43,490 --> 00:28:42,059 instantly and this type of thing I've 732 00:28:46,669 --> 00:28:43,500 heard people making these types of 733 00:28:48,529 --> 00:28:46,679 claims and I'm very I'm a bit dubious 734 00:28:50,269 --> 00:28:48,539 about them particularly I mean look over 735 00:28:52,370 --> 00:28:50,279 the last five years and beyond that 736 00:28:53,890 --> 00:28:52,380 there are a number of people making some 737 00:28:56,330 --> 00:28:53,900 uh 738 00:28:58,610 --> 00:28:56,340 irresponsible and fraudulent I would say 739 00:29:00,049 --> 00:28:58,620 claims that were related to Breakaway 740 00:29:03,710 --> 00:29:00,059 civilization I think it did a lot of 741 00:29:05,029 --> 00:29:03,720 damage to the concept itself frankly uh 742 00:29:07,549 --> 00:29:05,039 when you have people talking about time 743 00:29:09,830 --> 00:29:07,559 traveling and and this type of thing 744 00:29:12,649 --> 00:29:09,840 fighting aliens on Mars and like I think 745 00:29:14,870 --> 00:29:12,659 the serious damage to our field for a 746 00:29:16,730 --> 00:29:14,880 few years uh fortunately I think we've 747 00:29:18,190 --> 00:29:16,740 kind of gotten over that that little 748 00:29:21,830 --> 00:29:18,200 crazy party 749 00:29:24,470 --> 00:29:21,840 so I I feel like no it's a legitimate 750 00:29:26,210 --> 00:29:24,480 concept I 751 00:29:27,710 --> 00:29:26,220 I absolutely think that there is 752 00:29:30,230 --> 00:29:27,720 something along these lines 753 00:29:31,070 --> 00:29:30,240 uh the real question is how far does it 754 00:29:35,870 --> 00:29:31,080 go 755 00:29:38,750 --> 00:29:35,880 there is something along these lines I 756 00:29:42,310 --> 00:29:38,760 will continue to believe that okay 757 00:29:45,289 --> 00:29:42,320 well in terms of Concepts you know in uh 758 00:29:48,350 --> 00:29:45,299 when you and Bryce Sable co-authored 759 00:29:53,149 --> 00:29:48,360 your book a day after disclosure uh 760 00:29:56,690 --> 00:29:53,159 really it's crazy to think of where we 761 00:29:58,549 --> 00:29:56,700 were then and where we are now and and 762 00:30:00,889 --> 00:29:58,559 this is one of our this is one of our 763 00:30:03,830 --> 00:30:00,899 most popular questions Amy on patreon 764 00:30:05,870 --> 00:30:03,840 and Brandon through Facebook as uh has 765 00:30:08,029 --> 00:30:05,880 your concept or idea of what disclosure 766 00:30:10,370 --> 00:30:08,039 may look like changed since the 767 00:30:11,750 --> 00:30:10,380 publishing of the original book and if 768 00:30:14,210 --> 00:30:11,760 so how 769 00:30:16,250 --> 00:30:14,220 that's a good question well when we 770 00:30:19,190 --> 00:30:16,260 wrote that book so Bryce and I I love 771 00:30:20,269 --> 00:30:19,200 Bryce I respect him uh tremendously but 772 00:30:22,549 --> 00:30:20,279 our attitudes are a little different 773 00:30:23,810 --> 00:30:22,559 they were different then and I suspect 774 00:30:25,850 --> 00:30:23,820 that they're probably a little bit 775 00:30:28,730 --> 00:30:25,860 different today which is fine you know 776 00:30:30,169 --> 00:30:28,740 we all have our perspective so uh among 777 00:30:33,350 --> 00:30:30,179 the two of us I would say he was always 778 00:30:34,549 --> 00:30:33,360 a bit more of an optimist than I was I 779 00:30:36,049 --> 00:30:34,559 think that's fair to say I think he 780 00:30:37,789 --> 00:30:36,059 would agree with that 781 00:30:39,169 --> 00:30:37,799 uh 782 00:30:40,789 --> 00:30:39,179 that doesn't mean that I was a total 783 00:30:41,870 --> 00:30:40,799 pessimist about disclosure you know we 784 00:30:44,389 --> 00:30:41,880 wrote that book 785 00:30:47,750 --> 00:30:44,399 in the year 2000 786 00:30:52,310 --> 00:30:47,760 2010 yeah 2010 wow 787 00:30:54,049 --> 00:30:52,320 so that's 12 13 years ago just about uh 788 00:30:56,630 --> 00:30:54,059 that was before 789 00:30:59,210 --> 00:30:56,640 the big Tech Revolution against uh 790 00:31:01,549 --> 00:30:59,220 freedom of expression became obvious uh 791 00:31:04,250 --> 00:31:01,559 when we believed when it was true that 792 00:31:06,590 --> 00:31:04,260 there was this alternate media as it 793 00:31:08,870 --> 00:31:06,600 were that could be uh 794 00:31:11,389 --> 00:31:08,880 kind of a lever against the Legacy Media 795 00:31:13,130 --> 00:31:11,399 at least this is how I saw it so my 796 00:31:15,529 --> 00:31:13,140 reasoning at the time was 797 00:31:17,090 --> 00:31:15,539 we're in an era where Wikileaks was 798 00:31:19,010 --> 00:31:17,100 still going 799 00:31:19,970 --> 00:31:19,020 uh the you know National governments had 800 00:31:21,230 --> 00:31:19,980 not really 801 00:31:23,510 --> 00:31:21,240 brought the hammer down against 802 00:31:25,070 --> 00:31:23,520 Wikileaks the way they did shortly after 803 00:31:30,529 --> 00:31:25,080 that 804 00:31:33,409 --> 00:31:30,539 the flow of information to me seemed 805 00:31:35,510 --> 00:31:33,419 like it was going in a One Direction and 806 00:31:38,029 --> 00:31:35,520 that at a certain point there would be 807 00:31:40,549 --> 00:31:38,039 an inevitable breakthrough in terms of a 808 00:31:41,450 --> 00:31:40,559 leak and unexpected disclosure and the 809 00:31:42,830 --> 00:31:41,460 like 810 00:31:44,510 --> 00:31:42,840 so there are a couple of things that are 811 00:31:46,789 --> 00:31:44,520 different between then and now and and 812 00:31:48,289 --> 00:31:46,799 one I would say miscalculation on my 813 00:31:52,070 --> 00:31:48,299 part 814 00:31:54,470 --> 00:31:52,080 so the things that are different are 815 00:31:56,510 --> 00:31:54,480 uh well we've had we've had a definite 816 00:31:58,970 --> 00:31:56,520 digital Revolution since then 817 00:32:01,549 --> 00:31:58,980 uh we've seen you know remember in Star 818 00:32:03,649 --> 00:32:01,559 Wars The Empire Strikes Back well the 819 00:32:06,649 --> 00:32:03,659 Empire has struck back since since that 820 00:32:09,830 --> 00:32:06,659 time and has gone a long long way toward 821 00:32:12,049 --> 00:32:09,840 consolidating its control over big Tech 822 00:32:13,970 --> 00:32:12,059 and over populations in general so 823 00:32:17,750 --> 00:32:13,980 that's one thing 824 00:32:20,750 --> 00:32:17,760 and uh and so so that took away the 825 00:32:22,490 --> 00:32:20,760 whole leverage that I think was 826 00:32:25,010 --> 00:32:22,500 available on social media like YouTube 827 00:32:27,169 --> 00:32:25,020 for example or Facebook you know my 828 00:32:28,789 --> 00:32:27,179 attitude was if something big happens it 829 00:32:30,470 --> 00:32:28,799 will spread like wildfire on Youtube 830 00:32:34,310 --> 00:32:30,480 it'll spread like wildfire on Facebook 831 00:32:35,930 --> 00:32:34,320 because they can't control that well so 832 00:32:37,970 --> 00:32:35,940 much for that idea that that absolutely 833 00:32:40,389 --> 00:32:37,980 has been and is controlled 834 00:32:43,130 --> 00:32:40,399 um social media is is very carefully 835 00:32:45,110 --> 00:32:43,140 curated as they love to put that's their 836 00:32:47,510 --> 00:32:45,120 favorite word for that 837 00:32:51,049 --> 00:32:47,520 so social media is no Panacea any longer 838 00:32:52,909 --> 00:32:51,059 and then the thing where I miscalculated 839 00:32:57,289 --> 00:32:52,919 and this really became clear since 2017 840 00:32:58,789 --> 00:32:57,299 is I I would have to say I believed 841 00:33:02,450 --> 00:32:58,799 that 842 00:33:04,490 --> 00:33:02,460 if the public were presented with a 843 00:33:07,549 --> 00:33:04,500 statement by The Establishment to the 844 00:33:09,889 --> 00:33:07,559 effect that UFOs are real 845 00:33:11,690 --> 00:33:09,899 that this would likely trigger some kind 846 00:33:14,630 --> 00:33:11,700 of avalanche 847 00:33:17,269 --> 00:33:14,640 of an energized public 848 00:33:20,210 --> 00:33:17,279 that would say hey wait you've been 849 00:33:22,070 --> 00:33:20,220 lying about this for so many years 850 00:33:23,509 --> 00:33:22,080 we want to know everything about this 851 00:33:26,149 --> 00:33:23,519 and by the way what else have you been 852 00:33:28,549 --> 00:33:26,159 lying about this was definitely how I 853 00:33:29,810 --> 00:33:28,559 thought the public reaction would be and 854 00:33:31,669 --> 00:33:29,820 in fact it hasn't turned out to be the 855 00:33:34,549 --> 00:33:31,679 case I was dead wrong on this because 856 00:33:37,130 --> 00:33:34,559 what we've seen in 2017 is that the 857 00:33:40,850 --> 00:33:37,140 National Security apparatus is very very 858 00:33:43,970 --> 00:33:40,860 astute at managing its process of 859 00:33:47,810 --> 00:33:43,980 disclosure or managing 860 00:33:49,730 --> 00:33:47,820 any kind of undesirable leaks so I look 861 00:33:52,190 --> 00:33:49,740 at the equation of atip and the Tic Tac 862 00:33:53,029 --> 00:33:52,200 UFO as undesirable leaks on their part I 863 00:33:54,889 --> 00:33:53,039 don't think the National Security 864 00:33:58,549 --> 00:33:54,899 apparatus wanted that information out 865 00:34:01,370 --> 00:33:58,559 but once it came out they their masters 866 00:34:02,630 --> 00:34:01,380 at managing the public perceptions and 867 00:34:04,250 --> 00:34:02,640 so what's happened 868 00:34:06,409 --> 00:34:04,260 there's kind of this tacit 869 00:34:09,649 --> 00:34:06,419 acknowledgment that UFOs are real 870 00:34:12,169 --> 00:34:09,659 but they've done it genius level by 871 00:34:14,570 --> 00:34:12,179 which they're not stating UFOs are real 872 00:34:15,950 --> 00:34:14,580 they're like kind of sitting back and 873 00:34:17,149 --> 00:34:15,960 saying yeah yeah it looks like there's 874 00:34:19,190 --> 00:34:17,159 something there 875 00:34:22,250 --> 00:34:19,200 and where's the public on this 876 00:34:24,409 --> 00:34:22,260 where is the public 877 00:34:25,669 --> 00:34:24,419 as Elizondo said in the early days it 878 00:34:26,930 --> 00:34:25,679 sounds nothing I hear nothing but 879 00:34:29,089 --> 00:34:26,940 crickets 880 00:34:31,250 --> 00:34:29,099 and that is that's what it is the public 881 00:34:33,169 --> 00:34:31,260 is is not energized by this the public 882 00:34:34,849 --> 00:34:33,179 doesn't seem to give a damn frankly 883 00:34:37,070 --> 00:34:34,859 they're going about with their lives and 884 00:34:40,909 --> 00:34:37,080 and they don't care because the fact is 885 00:34:42,770 --> 00:34:40,919 that there is no major media 886 00:34:44,089 --> 00:34:42,780 that is taking this narrative and 887 00:34:46,490 --> 00:34:44,099 pushing it and so you know people 888 00:34:48,589 --> 00:34:46,500 unfortunately are very passive they 889 00:34:50,030 --> 00:34:48,599 they eat the food that's been pre-chewed 890 00:34:52,669 --> 00:34:50,040 and served to them by the National 891 00:34:54,770 --> 00:34:52,679 Security apparatus and so there's not a 892 00:34:55,970 --> 00:34:54,780 lot of curiosity about it or if there's 893 00:34:58,430 --> 00:34:55,980 not a lot of knowledge and there doesn't 894 00:34:59,810 --> 00:34:58,440 seem to be much of a push so that's 895 00:35:02,150 --> 00:34:59,820 where I think I would say I 896 00:35:03,170 --> 00:35:02,160 miscalculated in 897 00:35:04,910 --> 00:35:03,180 um 898 00:35:07,670 --> 00:35:04,920 a day after disclosure it wasn't just me 899 00:35:09,770 --> 00:35:07,680 I mean I think Bryson I think probably 900 00:35:11,450 --> 00:35:09,780 if you had asked any other UFO 901 00:35:13,250 --> 00:35:11,460 researcher back in 2010 902 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:13,260 if the government were to give an 903 00:35:17,089 --> 00:35:15,359 acknowledgment that UFOs are real I 904 00:35:19,010 --> 00:35:17,099 think we all would have said wow that 905 00:35:20,630 --> 00:35:19,020 would be an amazing thing that would be 906 00:35:23,390 --> 00:35:20,640 such a shock and yet they've actually 907 00:35:27,230 --> 00:35:23,400 Managed IT exceedingly well 908 00:35:27,970 --> 00:35:27,240 yeah hence arrow and everything moving 909 00:35:30,170 --> 00:35:27,980 forward 910 00:35:33,170 --> 00:35:30,180 let me just further answer that question 911 00:35:35,810 --> 00:35:33,180 in terms of where I think we are headed 912 00:35:37,550 --> 00:35:35,820 um you know one phrase that I I used to 913 00:35:40,130 --> 00:35:37,560 repeat all the time that I coined was 914 00:35:43,130 --> 00:35:40,140 disclosure is impossible and inevitable 915 00:35:45,230 --> 00:35:43,140 I always put it out as a paradox it's 916 00:35:48,349 --> 00:35:45,240 impossible because there's no motivation 917 00:35:50,510 --> 00:35:48,359 for the powers that be to promote it and 918 00:35:51,530 --> 00:35:50,520 that is still absolutely true and I 919 00:35:53,390 --> 00:35:51,540 always said but it's inevitable 920 00:35:56,750 --> 00:35:53,400 nonetheless for the reasons that I kind 921 00:35:59,030 --> 00:35:56,760 of outlined a little earlier 922 00:36:01,250 --> 00:35:59,040 uh I don't know if it's inevitable I I'm 923 00:36:03,109 --> 00:36:01,260 not so sure it said that 924 00:36:04,849 --> 00:36:03,119 if it's a done deal at all which I used 925 00:36:07,190 --> 00:36:04,859 to think it would be 926 00:36:10,490 --> 00:36:07,200 I would say it is possible 927 00:36:11,690 --> 00:36:10,500 but it is also possible that a genuine 928 00:36:13,190 --> 00:36:11,700 disclosure 929 00:36:14,990 --> 00:36:13,200 could be withheld from us for a very 930 00:36:17,390 --> 00:36:15,000 long time 931 00:36:20,329 --> 00:36:17,400 I mean so long that it it makes the 932 00:36:21,530 --> 00:36:20,339 subject irrelevant that's possible Right 933 00:36:22,970 --> 00:36:21,540 right 934 00:36:24,829 --> 00:36:22,980 interesting 935 00:36:28,970 --> 00:36:24,839 um well I mean kind of staying I guess 936 00:36:30,710 --> 00:36:28,980 in that same vein uh Congress got 937 00:36:33,349 --> 00:36:30,720 involved for this topic for the first 938 00:36:36,470 --> 00:36:33,359 time since you know the Gerald Ford days 939 00:36:39,770 --> 00:36:36,480 when we had semi Congressional hearings 940 00:36:43,310 --> 00:36:39,780 on the Suffolk and uh it was 941 00:36:45,050 --> 00:36:43,320 I I you know it was uh depressing it was 942 00:36:46,910 --> 00:36:45,060 sobering when those Congressional 943 00:36:48,650 --> 00:36:46,920 hearings happened I think a lot of 944 00:36:50,810 --> 00:36:48,660 people expected you know they'd pull out 945 00:36:53,089 --> 00:36:50,820 the the alien and bring it on the 946 00:36:54,410 --> 00:36:53,099 Congress floor and that clearly did not 947 00:36:57,589 --> 00:36:54,420 happen 948 00:36:59,390 --> 00:36:57,599 um but yeah yeah well you know before I 949 00:37:01,010 --> 00:36:59,400 actually move on to the question asked 950 00:37:02,450 --> 00:37:01,020 uh what did you make of the 951 00:37:04,970 --> 00:37:02,460 Congressional hearing rich on a personal 952 00:37:06,950 --> 00:37:04,980 level did that help hurt the topic the 953 00:37:08,750 --> 00:37:06,960 subject did it hurt the government did 954 00:37:11,810 --> 00:37:08,760 it hurt I would say it was almost 955 00:37:13,910 --> 00:37:11,820 exactly what I was expecting to say that 956 00:37:15,950 --> 00:37:13,920 I it oh you're talking about the one 957 00:37:18,829 --> 00:37:15,960 that was uh almost a year ago so from 958 00:37:20,870 --> 00:37:18,839 May of 2022 yeah so this is Ronald 959 00:37:24,109 --> 00:37:20,880 Moultrie and Scott Bray 960 00:37:26,630 --> 00:37:24,119 uh when they spoke to Congress the open 961 00:37:29,270 --> 00:37:26,640 part is what we saw and that was I think 962 00:37:30,890 --> 00:37:29,280 about an hour wasn't that very long 963 00:37:33,109 --> 00:37:30,900 uh 964 00:37:34,849 --> 00:37:33,119 you know obviously neither of those men 965 00:37:36,470 --> 00:37:34,859 know much of anything about the UFO 966 00:37:38,630 --> 00:37:36,480 subject it was quite obvious that they 967 00:37:41,030 --> 00:37:38,640 were both out of their depth uh Moultrie 968 00:37:45,050 --> 00:37:41,040 was funny because he sounded almost 969 00:37:48,589 --> 00:37:45,060 exactly like John uh Samford from 1952 970 00:37:51,230 --> 00:37:48,599 at the famous press conference in DC uh 971 00:37:52,910 --> 00:37:51,240 moultrie's saying well yeah there's uh 972 00:37:55,010 --> 00:37:52,920 there's objects out there but we are 973 00:37:58,250 --> 00:37:55,020 confident he said that with enough 974 00:38:00,589 --> 00:37:58,260 information we can identify and mitigate 975 00:38:02,630 --> 00:38:00,599 all of them that was a word that I loved 976 00:38:04,370 --> 00:38:02,640 mitigate and I watched that I'm like 977 00:38:06,530 --> 00:38:04,380 dude you're not mitigating anything here 978 00:38:08,329 --> 00:38:06,540 you haven't mitigated this for 80 years 979 00:38:10,370 --> 00:38:08,339 you're not going to mitigate it now 980 00:38:12,890 --> 00:38:10,380 uh that's just a lot of Brave talk there 981 00:38:14,329 --> 00:38:12,900 but but I suppose what I would say is 982 00:38:18,650 --> 00:38:14,339 that 983 00:38:19,910 --> 00:38:18,660 came out of it were some of the 984 00:38:21,410 --> 00:38:19,920 questions by representative Mike 985 00:38:24,770 --> 00:38:21,420 Gallagher who did bring up the Davis 986 00:38:27,109 --> 00:38:24,780 Wilson memo I thought hey okay that's a 987 00:38:30,349 --> 00:38:27,119 nice little win got that in there 988 00:38:32,870 --> 00:38:30,359 um and uh I think it was oh he asked a 989 00:38:34,910 --> 00:38:32,880 question about the UFOs and nukes which 990 00:38:35,930 --> 00:38:34,920 okay good let's let's bring some of 991 00:38:38,569 --> 00:38:35,940 these things up 992 00:38:40,130 --> 00:38:38,579 but really there was I would say little 993 00:38:41,390 --> 00:38:40,140 to nothing of genuine substance that 994 00:38:44,510 --> 00:38:41,400 came out of it 995 00:38:46,430 --> 00:38:44,520 and and very little in terms of a 996 00:38:47,569 --> 00:38:46,440 promise for further information I mean 997 00:38:48,829 --> 00:38:47,579 they're just going through the motions 998 00:38:50,569 --> 00:38:48,839 here 999 00:38:52,550 --> 00:38:50,579 so it was 1000 00:38:54,530 --> 00:38:52,560 if there was someone who was actually 1001 00:38:56,390 --> 00:38:54,540 waiting for a kind of disclosure moment 1002 00:38:59,270 --> 00:38:56,400 I think they they would have been very 1003 00:39:02,450 --> 00:38:59,280 disappointed obviously and 1004 00:39:04,010 --> 00:39:02,460 uh for me I'm at the George Carlin phase 1005 00:39:06,890 --> 00:39:04,020 of life you know 30 years ago George 1006 00:39:08,390 --> 00:39:06,900 Carlin's in his last stand-up phase and 1007 00:39:09,890 --> 00:39:08,400 he's like look I didn't vote for these 1008 00:39:12,650 --> 00:39:09,900 guys I'm just here to watch the 1009 00:39:15,710 --> 00:39:12,660 show I got a front row seat 1010 00:39:17,329 --> 00:39:15,720 and uh and he's like I'm loving it 1011 00:39:19,250 --> 00:39:17,339 I used to listen to that years ago and 1012 00:39:20,329 --> 00:39:19,260 I'm like wow he's funny but he's a 1013 00:39:23,210 --> 00:39:20,339 little harsh 1014 00:39:24,109 --> 00:39:23,220 I I look at it now and I think not harsh 1015 00:39:27,290 --> 00:39:24,119 enough 1016 00:39:29,810 --> 00:39:27,300 so how did I get to the point where I'm 1017 00:39:32,569 --> 00:39:29,820 I'm channeling this ghost the shade of 1018 00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:32,579 George Carlin but I do uh I definitely 1019 00:39:37,849 --> 00:39:34,320 see where he's coming from 1020 00:39:41,089 --> 00:39:37,859 so my attitude is I don't expect 1021 00:39:42,670 --> 00:39:41,099 uh I'm just not expecting anything to 1022 00:39:44,990 --> 00:39:42,680 come out of these Congressional 1023 00:39:46,970 --> 00:39:45,000 initiatives I'm not saying things are 1024 00:39:51,230 --> 00:39:46,980 impossible and I'm not saying nothing 1025 00:39:53,089 --> 00:39:51,240 will come out but a genuine recognition 1026 00:39:54,710 --> 00:39:53,099 disclosure 1027 00:39:56,569 --> 00:39:54,720 look I know that there are some efforts 1028 00:40:00,410 --> 00:39:56,579 behind the scenes toward this 1029 00:40:02,450 --> 00:40:00,420 and I have spoken to some people who 1030 00:40:04,490 --> 00:40:02,460 are have connections with that who are 1031 00:40:05,690 --> 00:40:04,500 like no no we're making this happen this 1032 00:40:07,370 --> 00:40:05,700 is going to happen 1033 00:40:09,230 --> 00:40:07,380 so my attitude is good you know if you 1034 00:40:10,670 --> 00:40:09,240 make it happen wonderful I think you 1035 00:40:11,510 --> 00:40:10,680 have more confidence in that system than 1036 00:40:13,730 --> 00:40:11,520 I do 1037 00:40:15,710 --> 00:40:13,740 but I I can't pretend that I have the 1038 00:40:17,089 --> 00:40:15,720 full answer I'm just all I have is my 1039 00:40:20,030 --> 00:40:17,099 perspective 1040 00:40:22,670 --> 00:40:20,040 and and looking at years of historical 1041 00:40:24,349 --> 00:40:22,680 obfuscation and also you know 1042 00:40:26,690 --> 00:40:24,359 understanding what the stakes are for 1043 00:40:28,670 --> 00:40:26,700 these people that is giving up a genuine 1044 00:40:29,870 --> 00:40:28,680 admission on this 1045 00:40:32,690 --> 00:40:29,880 uh 1046 00:40:34,730 --> 00:40:32,700 I don't I don't see how they win 1047 00:40:36,589 --> 00:40:34,740 because 1048 00:40:38,030 --> 00:40:36,599 there's a lot to be lost the only way 1049 00:40:40,430 --> 00:40:38,040 that I could see them doing it is if 1050 00:40:42,290 --> 00:40:40,440 they are pushed as I said before to the 1051 00:40:44,329 --> 00:40:42,300 wall and there's 1052 00:40:47,270 --> 00:40:44,339 something even worse that will happen if 1053 00:40:48,650 --> 00:40:47,280 they don't give up some of the truth a 1054 00:40:50,510 --> 00:40:48,660 sliver of the truth 1055 00:40:52,370 --> 00:40:50,520 which is all that we can ever expect by 1056 00:40:55,010 --> 00:40:52,380 the way in other words you think of 1057 00:40:57,710 --> 00:40:55,020 think of UFO information as a mountain 1058 00:40:59,030 --> 00:40:57,720 and the the people who have control over 1059 00:41:00,710 --> 00:40:59,040 the information if they give up 1060 00:41:02,690 --> 00:41:00,720 something if they give up anything 1061 00:41:05,329 --> 00:41:02,700 they're going to give up a sliver of 1062 00:41:07,010 --> 00:41:05,339 that mountain just a sliver and it'll be 1063 00:41:08,750 --> 00:41:07,020 the sliver that puts them in the best 1064 00:41:11,810 --> 00:41:08,760 possible light 1065 00:41:14,329 --> 00:41:11,820 so but but even giving up a sliver is a 1066 00:41:16,550 --> 00:41:14,339 dangerous game because 1067 00:41:18,349 --> 00:41:16,560 if you wet the appetite of the public on 1068 00:41:20,329 --> 00:41:18,359 this too much and you give them the 1069 00:41:21,410 --> 00:41:20,339 public the opportunity to ask difficult 1070 00:41:23,569 --> 00:41:21,420 questions 1071 00:41:25,670 --> 00:41:23,579 then that's no good either 1072 00:41:26,750 --> 00:41:25,680 you know government says Yeah Yeah we 1073 00:41:28,250 --> 00:41:26,760 actually have known about this for a 1074 00:41:30,109 --> 00:41:28,260 little while or this appears to be real 1075 00:41:31,790 --> 00:41:30,119 people are going to be like really so 1076 00:41:33,410 --> 00:41:31,800 what does it say about Crash retrievals 1077 00:41:35,089 --> 00:41:33,420 is this a question that'll come up at a 1078 00:41:36,349 --> 00:41:35,099 press conference have there been crash 1079 00:41:39,530 --> 00:41:36,359 retrievals and is anyone going to 1080 00:41:42,530 --> 00:41:41,089 um maybe maybe that will happen and 1081 00:41:44,390 --> 00:41:42,540 there will be denials and maybe no one 1082 00:41:46,849 --> 00:41:44,400 will believe them but even if that's the 1083 00:41:48,770 --> 00:41:46,859 case will anything come out of that 1084 00:41:50,510 --> 00:41:48,780 who believes that we have a functioning 1085 00:41:53,630 --> 00:41:50,520 democratic system here I mean let's get 1086 00:41:56,210 --> 00:41:53,640 real does does anyone actually believe 1087 00:41:57,589 --> 00:41:56,220 that the the United States or for that 1088 00:41:59,690 --> 00:41:57,599 matter the European system you're in 1089 00:42:02,210 --> 00:41:59,700 Scotland there uh does anyone actually 1090 00:42:04,790 --> 00:42:02,220 believe that anywhere 1091 00:42:07,970 --> 00:42:04,800 in any society Western Society or 1092 00:42:09,650 --> 00:42:07,980 anywhere that governments at this point 1093 00:42:11,810 --> 00:42:09,660 are amenable to the will of the people 1094 00:42:13,250 --> 00:42:11,820 in my view the last two plus years 1095 00:42:15,230 --> 00:42:13,260 they've just taken the mask off and 1096 00:42:17,329 --> 00:42:15,240 they're like we don't give a crap and 1097 00:42:19,069 --> 00:42:17,339 and what are you going to do about it 1098 00:42:20,930 --> 00:42:19,079 look what Trudeau did to the Canadian 1099 00:42:22,790 --> 00:42:20,940 truckers a little over a year ago 1100 00:42:24,710 --> 00:42:22,800 which I I think was a reprehensible 1101 00:42:26,450 --> 00:42:24,720 crime by the Canadian government against 1102 00:42:28,730 --> 00:42:26,460 their people they don't care 1103 00:42:33,710 --> 00:42:28,740 they don't care 1104 00:42:35,270 --> 00:42:33,720 leadership none of them care 1105 00:42:36,890 --> 00:42:35,280 they're all every one of them are hated 1106 00:42:38,450 --> 00:42:36,900 by the public and they don't care 1107 00:42:40,370 --> 00:42:38,460 because they know they don't need to 1108 00:42:41,569 --> 00:42:40,380 care so and it's the same with the 1109 00:42:43,910 --> 00:42:41,579 United States 1110 00:42:45,890 --> 00:42:43,920 so we're in a different situation than 1111 00:42:49,010 --> 00:42:45,900 we were a couple of generations ago 1112 00:42:50,630 --> 00:42:49,020 where there was at least the pretense uh 1113 00:42:52,130 --> 00:42:50,640 public officials that actually were 1114 00:42:54,950 --> 00:42:52,140 supposed to care about public opinion 1115 00:42:56,390 --> 00:42:54,960 and would answer it that's not the case 1116 00:42:58,550 --> 00:42:56,400 anymore 1117 00:43:00,890 --> 00:42:58,560 hmm yeah 1118 00:43:01,730 --> 00:43:00,900 it's the same everywhere I hate to say 1119 00:43:03,170 --> 00:43:01,740 it 1120 00:43:05,690 --> 00:43:03,180 um well okay 1121 00:43:08,329 --> 00:43:05,700 you mentioned a buzzword in there Rich 1122 00:43:10,849 --> 00:43:08,339 so I'm gonna fast forward to our most 1123 00:43:13,309 --> 00:43:10,859 popular question 1124 00:43:16,849 --> 00:43:13,319 um literally dozens and dozens of people 1125 00:43:18,950 --> 00:43:16,859 wanted to uh get your most updated 1126 00:43:20,329 --> 00:43:18,960 thoughts on this you mentioned Wilson 1127 00:43:23,089 --> 00:43:20,339 Davis 1128 00:43:24,530 --> 00:43:23,099 um yes where are you on this I mean this 1129 00:43:27,109 --> 00:43:24,540 is probably one of the most contentious 1130 00:43:29,750 --> 00:43:27,119 uh things to come out of ufology in a 1131 00:43:31,430 --> 00:43:29,760 while you know if you believe it uh 1132 00:43:32,870 --> 00:43:31,440 people wanna ring your neck if you don't 1133 00:43:33,770 --> 00:43:32,880 believe it people want to ring your neck 1134 00:43:36,470 --> 00:43:33,780 too 1135 00:43:39,470 --> 00:43:36,480 um are we any closer to finding out is 1136 00:43:41,690 --> 00:43:39,480 any of this real did it happen I mean it 1137 00:43:44,450 --> 00:43:41,700 happened I I think everyone can sort of 1138 00:43:45,950 --> 00:43:44,460 agree on that the meeting happened but 1139 00:43:51,430 --> 00:43:45,960 uh what are your thoughts and 1140 00:43:56,990 --> 00:43:54,410 the summer in the skies podcast is free 1141 00:43:59,450 --> 00:43:57,000 to

00:44:34,370 --> 00:44:33,000 I think I think a few months ago I did a 1154 00:44:37,250 --> 00:44:34,380 YouTube 1155 00:44:39,530 --> 00:44:37,260 uh program which I called 1156 00:44:41,270 --> 00:44:39,540 um no more excuses 1157 00:44:43,309 --> 00:44:41,280 that's what it was and it was all about 1158 00:44:45,290 --> 00:44:43,319 the Wilson Davis or Davis Wilson notes 1159 00:44:47,030 --> 00:44:45,300 and essentially I said there are no more 1160 00:44:49,670 --> 00:44:47,040 excuses 1161 00:44:52,130 --> 00:44:49,680 for people to be wavering on this and to 1162 00:44:55,370 --> 00:44:52,140 to doubt the authenticity of this 1163 00:44:56,809 --> 00:44:55,380 document written by Dr Eric Davis 1164 00:44:59,750 --> 00:44:56,819 um you've had 1165 00:45:02,089 --> 00:44:59,760 many people now have have confirmed its 1166 00:45:03,650 --> 00:45:02,099 authenticity not just me you know I've 1167 00:45:06,109 --> 00:45:03,660 been on the record 1168 00:45:08,690 --> 00:45:06,119 uh since they came out in 2019 I said 1169 00:45:13,849 --> 00:45:08,700 look I was shown 1170 00:45:16,910 --> 00:45:13,859 uh several pages of those notes in 2006 1171 00:45:19,069 --> 00:45:16,920 in fact I went on the public record a 1172 00:45:21,050 --> 00:45:19,079 number of times back then 1173 00:45:24,950 --> 00:45:21,060 discussing the one thing I didn't say 1174 00:45:27,230 --> 00:45:24,960 back in 070809 was that I had seen the 1175 00:45:28,609 --> 00:45:27,240 notes and the only reason I didn't say 1176 00:45:30,650 --> 00:45:28,619 that it was out of respect to the man 1177 00:45:31,910 --> 00:45:30,660 who showed me those notes this is a man 1178 00:45:34,010 --> 00:45:31,920 who's 1179 00:45:36,710 --> 00:45:34,020 I'd never given up his name 1180 00:45:39,410 --> 00:45:36,720 and while he's alive I won't but because 1181 00:45:43,550 --> 00:45:39,420 he doesn't want me to but I'll just say 1182 00:45:45,770 --> 00:45:43,560 he is extremely close to the situation 1183 00:45:48,170 --> 00:45:45,780 so he showed me these notes in 06 I 1184 00:45:50,150 --> 00:45:48,180 started talking about Thomas Wilson in 1185 00:45:51,829 --> 00:45:50,160 2007. 1186 00:45:53,270 --> 00:45:51,839 I talked about Thomas Wilson being 1187 00:45:56,150 --> 00:45:53,280 denied access 1188 00:45:58,609 --> 00:45:56,160 to a reverse engineering program in 2007 1189 00:46:00,230 --> 00:45:58,619 and 2008 and 2009. how the hell am I 1190 00:46:01,809 --> 00:46:00,240 going to get that information if it 1191 00:46:04,309 --> 00:46:01,819 didn't come from those notes 1192 00:46:05,990 --> 00:46:04,319 obviously I was shown those notes and in 1193 00:46:10,670 --> 00:46:06,000 fact in one interview 1194 00:46:12,349 --> 00:46:10,680 back in 07 with uh the paracast hosted 1195 00:46:15,530 --> 00:46:12,359 by Gene Steinberg 1196 00:46:17,750 --> 00:46:15,540 I was on July 1st of 2007. 1197 00:46:19,370 --> 00:46:17,760 uh on that podcast which can be found on 1198 00:46:23,990 --> 00:46:19,380 the online 1199 00:46:25,910 --> 00:46:24,000 I actually uh very coyly quoted the the 1200 00:46:28,069 --> 00:46:25,920 notes themselves I didn't I didn't say 1201 00:46:31,069 --> 00:46:28,079 that but I said in contacts with Wilson 1202 00:46:32,870 --> 00:46:31,079 I said yeah he uh came across he learned 1203 00:46:35,690 --> 00:46:32,880 that there was technology not made by 1204 00:46:37,670 --> 00:46:35,700 man not by human hands I said it on the 1205 00:46:40,910 --> 00:46:37,680 podcast 1206 00:46:43,190 --> 00:46:40,920 because I had read those words 1207 00:46:45,890 --> 00:46:43,200 in 2006. 1208 00:46:46,849 --> 00:46:45,900 so the notes have existed for all this 1209 00:46:48,710 --> 00:46:46,859 time 1210 00:46:50,750 --> 00:46:48,720 and the person who showed me those notes 1211 00:46:53,030 --> 00:46:50,760 as I said was very very very intimately 1212 00:46:54,710 --> 00:46:53,040 close to that entire circle this is 1213 00:46:57,050 --> 00:46:54,720 obvious 1214 00:46:59,690 --> 00:46:57,060 that Eric Davis was set on a mission by 1215 00:47:01,370 --> 00:46:59,700 the Bigelow team the Ned's the Ned's 1216 00:47:03,170 --> 00:47:01,380 people essentially 1217 00:47:05,750 --> 00:47:03,180 to meet with Thomas Wilson who had just 1218 00:47:08,329 --> 00:47:05,760 gone into retirement in 2003 out of the 1219 00:47:09,170 --> 00:47:08,339 Joint Chiefs of 2002 excuse me those two 1220 00:47:10,910 --> 00:47:09,180 yeah 1221 00:47:12,950 --> 00:47:10,920 and um 1222 00:47:15,109 --> 00:47:12,960 and met with him and took detailed notes 1223 00:47:16,550 --> 00:47:15,119 those those are those are Davis's notes 1224 00:47:19,010 --> 00:47:16,560 that's his style 1225 00:47:20,569 --> 00:47:19,020 and uh who else has confirmed it well 1226 00:47:22,150 --> 00:47:20,579 Leslie Kane has confirmed that she'd 1227 00:47:24,650 --> 00:47:22,160 known about the notes 1228 00:47:26,210 --> 00:47:24,660 and I can say this now I mean when those 1229 00:47:27,349 --> 00:47:26,220 notes came out and I went public about 1230 00:47:29,210 --> 00:47:27,359 this 1231 00:47:30,530 --> 00:47:29,220 defending them Leslie wrote to me 1232 00:47:32,390 --> 00:47:30,540 privately she said I'm so glad you're 1233 00:47:33,890 --> 00:47:32,400 doing that she said unfortunately I 1234 00:47:35,390 --> 00:47:33,900 can't right now it's a little too 1235 00:47:38,270 --> 00:47:35,400 sensitive for me and I'm like okay well 1236 00:47:41,030 --> 00:47:38,280 great but she she did publicly confirm 1237 00:47:41,990 --> 00:47:41,040 them in 2022. as the exact uh Jacques 1238 00:47:45,170 --> 00:47:42,000 valet 1239 00:47:46,790 --> 00:47:45,180 as have I think George Knapp also they 1240 00:47:49,250 --> 00:47:46,800 all have they're all these people are 1241 00:47:52,370 --> 00:47:49,260 intimately close to the situation Davis 1242 00:47:54,170 --> 00:47:52,380 can't do it he can't and Wilson can't 1243 00:47:56,030 --> 00:47:54,180 obviously not 1244 00:47:58,430 --> 00:47:56,040 I was kind of amazed at people like 1245 00:48:00,170 --> 00:47:58,440 Billy Cox journalist and how you know I 1246 00:48:02,930 --> 00:48:00,180 mean he's done good work but how dense 1247 00:48:05,870 --> 00:48:02,940 can you be because Wilson denies it to 1248 00:48:08,510 --> 00:48:05,880 take that denial at face value really is 1249 00:48:11,630 --> 00:48:08,520 that what you call journalism 1250 00:48:13,970 --> 00:48:11,640 you know obviously they can't admit to 1251 00:48:16,490 --> 00:48:13,980 this because it's way too sensitive 1252 00:48:18,890 --> 00:48:16,500 but there is literally no excuse anymore 1253 00:48:20,270 --> 00:48:18,900 for someone to say gee they're I don't 1254 00:48:22,730 --> 00:48:20,280 think they're legit I think it's a hoax 1255 00:48:24,349 --> 00:48:22,740 like it's get real let's 1256 00:48:27,710 --> 00:48:24,359 let's just get real and the information 1257 00:48:29,750 --> 00:48:27,720 in those notes is too explicit and it's 1258 00:48:33,410 --> 00:48:29,760 you know frankly there's a tremendous 1259 00:48:35,510 --> 00:48:33,420 amount of very valuable information 1260 00:48:37,250 --> 00:48:35,520 for researchers 1261 00:48:39,950 --> 00:48:37,260 who are interested in trying to 1262 00:48:42,290 --> 00:48:39,960 understand the structure of UFO secrecy 1263 00:48:43,130 --> 00:48:42,300 at least that the pentagon's component 1264 00:48:44,390 --> 00:48:43,140 of it 1265 00:48:45,650 --> 00:48:44,400 you know there are probably other 1266 00:48:49,130 --> 00:48:45,660 government components you probably got 1267 00:48:50,690 --> 00:48:49,140 the doe and you've got the CIA both of 1268 00:48:53,990 --> 00:48:50,700 which I have been told have 1269 00:48:56,210 --> 00:48:54,000 similar black budget sap structures 1270 00:48:59,270 --> 00:48:56,220 within those organizations that are 1271 00:49:01,430 --> 00:48:59,280 equally impervious to outside review but 1272 00:49:02,930 --> 00:49:01,440 within the Pentagon we know it's under 1273 00:49:05,030 --> 00:49:02,940 the um 1274 00:49:07,670 --> 00:49:05,040 uh the oustat office the office of the 1275 00:49:09,589 --> 00:49:07,680 under secretary for uh Acquisitions and 1276 00:49:12,829 --> 00:49:09,599 Scientific Technology 1277 00:49:15,349 --> 00:49:12,839 and and within that they have a 1278 00:49:17,990 --> 00:49:15,359 uh you know other departments that are 1279 00:49:20,030 --> 00:49:18,000 with departments within departments that 1280 00:49:22,190 --> 00:49:20,040 within those you've got these special 1281 00:49:25,130 --> 00:49:22,200 access programs that Thomas Wilson was 1282 00:49:28,130 --> 00:49:25,140 able to find on the tips by the way 1283 00:49:30,890 --> 00:49:28,140 given him by Stephen Greer 1284 00:49:33,710 --> 00:49:30,900 in April 1997. it's a crazy story but 1285 00:49:36,109 --> 00:49:33,720 it's I knew all about this uh when it 1286 00:49:37,910 --> 00:49:36,119 happened in fact I talked about when I I 1287 00:49:39,890 --> 00:49:37,920 did the one Ambush interview probably in 1288 00:49:45,349 --> 00:49:39,900 my life when I called Thomas Wilson 1289 00:49:48,170 --> 00:49:45,359 at the end of um 2006 I called Wilson 1290 00:49:50,870 --> 00:49:48,180 and you know he got very upset and hung 1291 00:49:55,609 --> 00:49:50,880 up on hung up the phone on me 1292 00:49:58,309 --> 00:49:55,619 um so no this is there is no more excuse 1293 00:49:59,690 --> 00:49:58,319 the document's real and and the thing we 1294 00:50:02,390 --> 00:49:59,700 really need to be talking about is not 1295 00:50:03,829 --> 00:50:02,400 is it real it's like let's let's like 1296 00:50:06,589 --> 00:50:03,839 please get past that because it's just 1297 00:50:08,990 --> 00:50:06,599 cringe worthy when people do this but 1298 00:50:10,790 --> 00:50:09,000 what we need to do is analyze a document 1299 00:50:12,770 --> 00:50:10,800 and understand the implications the 1300 00:50:15,050 --> 00:50:12,780 implication of that document is the 1301 00:50:17,210 --> 00:50:15,060 important thing which is that 1302 00:50:19,309 --> 00:50:17,220 you have first of all 1303 00:50:21,290 --> 00:50:19,319 Wilson's being told now you could say 1304 00:50:23,030 --> 00:50:21,300 did the I assume these were Lockheed 1305 00:50:24,710 --> 00:50:23,040 guys but let's whoever told him were 1306 00:50:26,710 --> 00:50:24,720 they telling him the truth 1307 00:50:28,849 --> 00:50:26,720 so the truth you know presumably 1308 00:50:31,130 --> 00:50:28,859 Wilson's sitting down with The 1309 00:50:34,190 --> 00:50:31,140 Gatekeepers of the program who he 1310 00:50:36,349 --> 00:50:34,200 identified as the security manager the 1311 00:50:39,410 --> 00:50:36,359 corporate attorney 1312 00:50:40,910 --> 00:50:39,420 um and the program manager 1313 00:50:43,609 --> 00:50:40,920 and 1314 00:50:45,829 --> 00:50:43,619 you know what he said was that they told 1315 00:50:47,809 --> 00:50:45,839 him we have an intact craft and we we're 1316 00:50:49,250 --> 00:50:47,819 trying to figure it out and and we're 1317 00:50:51,049 --> 00:50:49,260 really kind of outmatched by this thing 1318 00:50:52,790 --> 00:50:51,059 we can't really we haven't made much 1319 00:50:54,530 --> 00:50:52,800 progress painfully slow progress that 1320 00:50:57,109 --> 00:50:54,540 type of thing the real question to ask 1321 00:50:58,130 --> 00:50:57,119 is were they telling him the truth that 1322 00:50:59,210 --> 00:50:58,140 is the question 1323 00:51:01,430 --> 00:50:59,220 yeah 1324 00:51:03,470 --> 00:51:01,440 um I don't I have and you know the other 1325 00:51:06,950 --> 00:51:03,480 part you can ask is 1326 00:51:08,510 --> 00:51:06,960 pardon me was Wilson telling Davis 1327 00:51:10,370 --> 00:51:08,520 the full truth 1328 00:51:11,990 --> 00:51:10,380 now I think that question the answer is 1329 00:51:13,549 --> 00:51:12,000 probably yes 1330 00:51:15,890 --> 00:51:13,559 I I don't think we can assume he told 1331 00:51:17,390 --> 00:51:15,900 him the full truth in fact I'm pretty 1332 00:51:19,849 --> 00:51:17,400 certain he did not tell Davis everything 1333 00:51:21,530 --> 00:51:19,859 but he told Davis a lot and the reason 1334 00:51:23,930 --> 00:51:21,540 is in the notes themselves Wilson 1335 00:51:25,670 --> 00:51:23,940 checked into Davis's Bona fides Wilson 1336 00:51:27,829 --> 00:51:25,680 was very very careful he was very 1337 00:51:30,410 --> 00:51:27,839 nervous about talking to anyone but he 1338 00:51:31,750 --> 00:51:30,420 trusted Davis because of the Bona fides 1339 00:51:34,370 --> 00:51:31,760 that he'd been given about Eric Davis 1340 00:51:36,349 --> 00:51:34,380 and so I think it's safe to say that 1341 00:51:37,790 --> 00:51:36,359 Wilson was truthful for the most part 1342 00:51:40,069 --> 00:51:37,800 with Davis he may have held some things 1343 00:51:41,510 --> 00:51:40,079 back the real question to ask is whether 1344 00:51:43,430 --> 00:51:41,520 let's say the Lockheed guys were they 1345 00:51:45,349 --> 00:51:43,440 truthful to Thomas Wilson when they gave 1346 00:51:46,730 --> 00:51:45,359 him their briefing and that's a fair 1347 00:51:48,530 --> 00:51:46,740 question to ask and it could be that 1348 00:51:51,650 --> 00:51:48,540 they did were or were not truthful to 1349 00:51:53,270 --> 00:51:51,660 him or they were partly truthful I think 1350 00:51:56,510 --> 00:51:53,280 that they were truthful in so far as 1351 00:51:58,490 --> 00:51:56,520 there was an at UFO program and I 1352 00:52:01,370 --> 00:51:58,500 believe this because that is the entire 1353 00:52:03,950 --> 00:52:01,380 reason Wilson looked for them he found 1354 00:52:06,609 --> 00:52:03,960 them he was working off of a lead that 1355 00:52:09,829 --> 00:52:06,619 Greer had given him specifically about 1356 00:52:13,010 --> 00:52:09,839 E.T reverse engineering uh Tech that was 1357 00:52:15,829 --> 00:52:13,020 being worked at privately away from the 1358 00:52:18,349 --> 00:52:15,839 auspices of U.S pentagon control 1359 00:52:20,329 --> 00:52:18,359 and so Wilson had this information he 1360 00:52:23,329 --> 00:52:20,339 found not one but four actually such 1361 00:52:25,069 --> 00:52:23,339 programs and only met with the managers 1362 00:52:26,809 --> 00:52:25,079 of this one 1363 00:52:29,930 --> 00:52:26,819 who then 1364 00:52:31,790 --> 00:52:29,940 said you know yeah this is E.T uh Wilson 1365 00:52:34,430 --> 00:52:31,800 was funny when he's talking to Davis in 1366 00:52:36,470 --> 00:52:34,440 those notes because he's giving this 1367 00:52:38,809 --> 00:52:36,480 pretense of asking them well is this 1368 00:52:41,329 --> 00:52:38,819 Russian is this some adversary I'm 1369 00:52:42,650 --> 00:52:41,339 thinking when I read these notes 1370 00:52:43,849 --> 00:52:42,660 I don't think you believe that for an 1371 00:52:45,710 --> 00:52:43,859 instant Wilson 1372 00:52:48,170 --> 00:52:45,720 but I think he was just saying that to 1373 00:52:50,210 --> 00:52:48,180 follow the old cya rule you got to cover 1374 00:52:51,650 --> 00:52:50,220 your you know line up your ducks and be 1375 00:52:53,690 --> 00:52:51,660 careful and I think 1376 00:52:57,170 --> 00:52:53,700 I think that was the only reason I think 1377 00:52:59,690 --> 00:52:57,180 uh he knew full well what this was about 1378 00:53:00,829 --> 00:52:59,700 and to that extent I think that they 1379 00:53:02,809 --> 00:53:00,839 told him the truth that there was a 1380 00:53:04,609 --> 00:53:02,819 program uh they did show him what was 1381 00:53:05,990 --> 00:53:04,619 called the big OT list that's simply the 1382 00:53:08,210 --> 00:53:06,000 list of the people who are in the 1383 00:53:10,730 --> 00:53:08,220 program Wilson said it was between four 1384 00:53:12,710 --> 00:53:10,740 and 800 names 1385 00:53:15,410 --> 00:53:12,720 and that they were almost all corporate 1386 00:53:17,809 --> 00:53:15,420 private almost only a small handful of 1387 00:53:20,870 --> 00:53:17,819 DOD Personnel were part of this was all 1388 00:53:22,130 --> 00:53:20,880 private contractor uh I see no reason to 1389 00:53:25,250 --> 00:53:22,140 doubt that at all 1390 00:53:26,990 --> 00:53:25,260 and uh the only thing you can ask that 1391 00:53:29,630 --> 00:53:27,000 they might doubt that you might doubt is 1392 00:53:31,970 --> 00:53:29,640 the question of painfully slow progress 1393 00:53:34,849 --> 00:53:31,980 that is the question and I don't know 1394 00:53:36,109 --> 00:53:34,859 the answer to that it could be that they 1395 00:53:38,150 --> 00:53:36,119 were telling him the truth it could be 1396 00:53:39,589 --> 00:53:38,160 that they were just blowing smoke up his 1397 00:53:41,270 --> 00:53:39,599 behind because they wanted to get him 1398 00:53:43,670 --> 00:53:41,280 off their back 1399 00:53:45,710 --> 00:53:43,680 who really who really knows I think the 1400 00:53:47,510 --> 00:53:45,720 attitude would be we can assume they 1401 00:53:49,130 --> 00:53:47,520 told him as much as they felt they had 1402 00:53:50,569 --> 00:53:49,140 to and they did have to tell him 1403 00:53:53,150 --> 00:53:50,579 something this is the other thing we 1404 00:53:55,730 --> 00:53:53,160 have to realize Wilson found them and 1405 00:53:58,849 --> 00:53:55,740 really pissed them off and what we 1406 00:54:00,710 --> 00:53:58,859 learned in those notes is that that 1407 00:54:03,890 --> 00:54:00,720 group had nearly been outed a few years 1408 00:54:05,930 --> 00:54:03,900 earlier by a pentagon audit that found 1409 00:54:08,510 --> 00:54:05,940 them and what they said to Wilson was 1410 00:54:11,030 --> 00:54:08,520 yeah we were nearly outed and we had to 1411 00:54:14,089 --> 00:54:11,040 bring that auditor into the security 1412 00:54:15,770 --> 00:54:14,099 to to shut him up that was the only 1413 00:54:17,150 --> 00:54:15,780 solution we had 1414 00:54:18,470 --> 00:54:17,160 so 1415 00:54:21,950 --> 00:54:18,480 you know would you have a guy like 1416 00:54:23,270 --> 00:54:21,960 Wilson who's blustering in there trying 1417 00:54:25,130 --> 00:54:23,280 to throw his weight around and saying 1418 00:54:28,609 --> 00:54:25,140 it's your mistake that you did not have 1419 00:54:30,170 --> 00:54:28,619 me in his oversight over your group 1420 00:54:32,690 --> 00:54:30,180 their attitude had to be let's just 1421 00:54:34,490 --> 00:54:32,700 think logically here their attitude was 1422 00:54:36,829 --> 00:54:34,500 all right we don't have to let him in 1423 00:54:39,290 --> 00:54:36,839 but we do have to deal with him he is 1424 00:54:41,809 --> 00:54:39,300 vice uh chair of the Joint Chiefs of 1425 00:54:43,490 --> 00:54:41,819 Staff of intelligence he's not a nobody 1426 00:54:45,170 --> 00:54:43,500 that we can just kick around like a 1427 00:54:47,569 --> 00:54:45,180 little puppy dog we've gotta we have to 1428 00:54:50,270 --> 00:54:47,579 respect him enough and deal with him so 1429 00:54:52,010 --> 00:54:50,280 the answer I think was exactly the right 1430 00:54:54,049 --> 00:54:52,020 one from their point of view they gave 1431 00:54:57,049 --> 00:54:54,059 him a little bit of information 1432 00:54:59,630 --> 00:54:57,059 and basically said now go away 1433 00:55:02,210 --> 00:54:59,640 and and Wilson said this is not right 1434 00:55:04,010 --> 00:55:02,220 you should I need to be in here they I'm 1435 00:55:05,450 --> 00:55:04,020 going to talk to my superiors and and 1436 00:55:06,950 --> 00:55:05,460 their answer was they'll go ahead if you 1437 00:55:08,450 --> 00:55:06,960 want to talk to your boss they clearly 1438 00:55:11,329 --> 00:55:08,460 were not frightened 1439 00:55:12,589 --> 00:55:11,339 Wilson goes back to DC does complain and 1440 00:55:14,450 --> 00:55:12,599 what happens he's threatened with his 1441 00:55:17,750 --> 00:55:14,460 career 1442 00:55:20,510 --> 00:55:17,760 so I think that's what happened 1443 00:55:22,309 --> 00:55:20,520 these are important implications you 1444 00:55:24,890 --> 00:55:22,319 know let's just stop and think we are so 1445 00:55:27,650 --> 00:55:24,900 used to the creeping fascism essentially 1446 00:55:29,750 --> 00:55:27,660 that has just spread over the Western 1447 00:55:32,089 --> 00:55:29,760 world it's like we've given up on the 1448 00:55:34,309 --> 00:55:32,099 idea of expecting our government to be 1449 00:55:36,349 --> 00:55:34,319 responsive to us it's like yeah we know 1450 00:55:38,450 --> 00:55:36,359 they're corrupt well you know what maybe 1451 00:55:40,609 --> 00:55:38,460 we shouldn't be so complacent 1452 00:55:42,650 --> 00:55:40,619 this is a very important thing 1453 00:55:43,910 --> 00:55:42,660 I don't agree with Stephen Greer and 1454 00:55:46,790 --> 00:55:43,920 everything let me just say that but I 1455 00:55:49,309 --> 00:55:46,800 agree with him 100 on his attitude back 1456 00:55:52,309 --> 00:55:49,319 then which was that this 1457 00:55:54,650 --> 00:55:52,319 must not be a program that is dominated 1458 00:55:56,690 --> 00:55:54,660 by private contractors who do not have 1459 00:55:58,730 --> 00:55:56,700 sufficient government oversight who get 1460 00:55:59,470 --> 00:55:58,740 what they want because when the proper 1461 00:56:02,089 --> 00:55:59,480 government 1462 00:56:04,069 --> 00:56:02,099 Liaisons retire they get brought into 1463 00:56:06,170 --> 00:56:04,079 the program and they make a lot of money 1464 00:56:07,670 --> 00:56:06,180 as Gatekeepers themselves which is how 1465 00:56:08,930 --> 00:56:07,680 the whole system works it's utterly 1466 00:56:11,510 --> 00:56:08,940 corrupt 1467 00:56:13,970 --> 00:56:11,520 and that's not a good system and Greer 1468 00:56:15,290 --> 00:56:13,980 was right for critiquing it back then he 1469 00:56:17,990 --> 00:56:15,300 was right to bring this to Wilson's 1470 00:56:19,790 --> 00:56:18,000 attention back then and 1471 00:56:21,470 --> 00:56:19,800 you know but it's just like we're in a 1472 00:56:23,990 --> 00:56:21,480 world where 1473 00:56:25,790 --> 00:56:24,000 uh people are they willfully incapable 1474 00:56:28,190 --> 00:56:25,800 of looking at the implications here some 1475 00:56:29,390 --> 00:56:28,200 of them are and some just I just don't 1476 00:56:30,410 --> 00:56:29,400 think they pay attention enough to 1477 00:56:32,809 --> 00:56:30,420 understand 1478 00:56:34,069 --> 00:56:32,819 the stakes that are involved in when you 1479 00:56:37,370 --> 00:56:34,079 look at everything involved in the 1480 00:56:39,349 --> 00:56:37,380 Wilson Davis notes we are talking as I 1481 00:56:42,290 --> 00:56:39,359 stand by what I called it a few years 1482 00:56:44,450 --> 00:56:42,300 ago the UFO leak of the century which it 1483 00:56:46,430 --> 00:56:44,460 remains to the state is the UFO League 1484 00:56:50,150 --> 00:56:46,440 of the century 1485 00:56:52,370 --> 00:56:50,160 yeah unfolding story we need to find 1486 00:56:54,770 --> 00:56:52,380 at least one of those four to five 1487 00:56:56,569 --> 00:56:54,780 hundred people like you mentioned who 1488 00:56:58,670 --> 00:56:56,579 may have worked in this program that 1489 00:57:00,170 --> 00:56:58,680 like you said leaks are the only and 1490 00:57:01,549 --> 00:57:00,180 they're a natural process of any 1491 00:57:03,730 --> 00:57:01,559 government 1492 00:57:05,870 --> 00:57:03,740 um in terms of like how we get any 1493 00:57:07,549 --> 00:57:05,880 transparency seems to be when we're 1494 00:57:08,750 --> 00:57:07,559 they're backed into a corner and leaks 1495 00:57:13,970 --> 00:57:08,760 happen 1496 00:57:16,010 --> 00:57:13,980 personally hope it's on a crash 1497 00:57:18,530 --> 00:57:16,020 retrieval program you know with all the 1498 00:57:20,450 --> 00:57:18,540 research I've done the past 20 something 1499 00:57:24,470 --> 00:57:20,460 years of my life 1500 00:57:27,049 --> 00:57:24,480 um that for me would be it not of blurry 1501 00:57:29,630 --> 00:57:27,059 video from the Navy 1502 00:57:31,809 --> 00:57:29,640 um you know not even any photo or video 1503 00:57:34,370 --> 00:57:31,819 it's the 1504 00:57:37,190 --> 00:57:34,380 admittance of some sort of program and 1505 00:57:39,650 --> 00:57:37,200 that we actually have a craft of Unknown 1506 00:57:42,770 --> 00:57:39,660 Origin in our possession in any country 1507 00:57:44,510 --> 00:57:42,780 not just in the United States too so if 1508 00:57:46,250 --> 00:57:44,520 this is it if this truly is the leak of 1509 00:57:48,349 --> 00:57:46,260 the century it would change everything 1510 00:57:50,270 --> 00:57:48,359 it honestly would and I don't know where 1511 00:57:52,250 --> 00:57:50,280 I stayed down the Wilson Davis thing uh 1512 00:57:54,710 --> 00:57:52,260 to be up front but hearing you talk 1513 00:57:56,750 --> 00:57:54,720 about the implication is enough to be 1514 00:57:59,150 --> 00:57:56,760 like we need to keep looking at this 1515 00:58:00,589 --> 00:57:59,160 well let me just say this so back in 06 1516 00:58:01,849 --> 00:58:00,599 When I Was preparing to phone Thomas 1517 00:58:04,670 --> 00:58:01,859 Wilson 1518 00:58:07,250 --> 00:58:04,680 I was in touch with the man who showed 1519 00:58:08,390 --> 00:58:07,260 me the the notes to begin with 1520 00:58:10,250 --> 00:58:08,400 famous 1521 00:58:11,990 --> 00:58:10,260 he's a great guy 1522 00:58:15,530 --> 00:58:12,000 I like him 1523 00:58:19,790 --> 00:58:15,540 uh I was writing to him and I said well 1524 00:58:22,010 --> 00:58:19,800 I am going to contact Wilson about this 1525 00:58:24,109 --> 00:58:22,020 and 1526 00:58:28,250 --> 00:58:24,119 his attitude was well good luck with 1527 00:58:31,010 --> 00:58:28,260 that and after after I called Wilson 1528 00:58:33,349 --> 00:58:31,020 uh I wrote back and I said yeah Wilson 1529 00:58:35,210 --> 00:58:33,359 just denied everything and this guy said 1530 00:58:38,030 --> 00:58:35,220 what do you expect 1531 00:58:40,190 --> 00:58:38,040 everything is on the line with him 1532 00:58:41,630 --> 00:58:40,200 which I knew as well like obviously I 1533 00:58:43,370 --> 00:58:41,640 knew all of this going into it like if 1534 00:58:45,109 --> 00:58:43,380 Wilson were to give an acknowledgment to 1535 00:58:47,390 --> 00:58:45,119 me on the phone 1536 00:58:50,030 --> 00:58:47,400 he knew that I would publicize that and 1537 00:58:52,190 --> 00:58:50,040 he it's like you know the a little house 1538 00:58:53,870 --> 00:58:52,200 of uh cards or a little house of 1539 00:58:57,829 --> 00:58:53,880 toothpicks coming crashing down all at 1540 00:59:00,650 --> 00:58:57,839 once it would be a huge admission 1541 00:59:06,829 --> 00:59:00,660 coming from a very important person back 1542 00:59:08,690 --> 00:59:06,839 in 607 of the existence of a UFO program 1543 00:59:10,010 --> 00:59:08,700 I mean you just remember where we were 1544 00:59:11,690 --> 00:59:10,020 back then 1545 00:59:13,069 --> 00:59:11,700 there was no admission from the 1546 00:59:14,210 --> 00:59:13,079 government about anything like this 1547 00:59:16,789 --> 00:59:14,220 whatsoever 1548 00:59:18,589 --> 00:59:16,799 yeah and uh no I mean it would it would 1549 00:59:21,650 --> 00:59:18,599 blow all of his security clearances for 1550 00:59:23,089 --> 00:59:21,660 the rest of all time first of all right 1551 00:59:26,390 --> 00:59:23,099 and uh 1552 00:59:28,370 --> 00:59:26,400 and it would also be a real explosive 1553 00:59:30,289 --> 00:59:28,380 danger to UFO secrecy in general and 1554 00:59:32,270 --> 00:59:30,299 there would be no way that he could but 1555 00:59:33,470 --> 00:59:32,280 I figured look 1556 00:59:35,510 --> 00:59:33,480 uh 1557 00:59:37,370 --> 00:59:35,520 I learned Wilson's name 1558 00:59:38,930 --> 00:59:37,380 I knew all about this 1559 00:59:41,390 --> 00:59:38,940 and I thought I'm just going to give a 1560 00:59:43,730 --> 00:59:41,400 guy a phone call and see what happens 1561 00:59:45,470 --> 00:59:43,740 and and you know so I mean I guess what 1562 00:59:47,630 --> 00:59:45,480 I'm saying is it was very clearly 1563 00:59:49,010 --> 00:59:47,640 understood between myself and the 1564 00:59:51,049 --> 00:59:49,020 individual who had shown me the notes to 1565 00:59:53,690 --> 00:59:51,059 begin with what the implications were 1566 00:59:55,309 --> 00:59:53,700 this is heavy duty stuff 1567 00:59:57,829 --> 00:59:55,319 and no it's not an official government 1568 00:59:59,870 --> 00:59:57,839 document but it doesn't matter 1569 01:00:02,210 --> 00:59:59,880 you're talking about a senior government 1570 01:00:05,630 --> 01:00:02,220 official senior government defense 1571 01:00:08,390 --> 01:00:05,640 official acknowledging the reality of 1572 01:00:10,069 --> 01:00:08,400 this phenomenon and how he got shut out 1573 01:00:12,170 --> 01:00:10,079 of it 1574 01:00:14,390 --> 01:00:12,180 by essentially 1575 01:00:16,430 --> 01:00:14,400 a corporation 1576 01:00:19,190 --> 01:00:16,440 how are the implications of that not 1577 01:00:20,990 --> 01:00:19,200 profound so it's been very obvious all 1578 01:00:22,309 --> 01:00:21,000 this time that this is a very serious 1579 01:00:24,950 --> 01:00:22,319 matter 1580 01:00:26,270 --> 01:00:24,960 and I I really I will just the last 1581 01:00:28,250 --> 01:00:26,280 thing I'll say here is I think those 1582 01:00:29,990 --> 01:00:28,260 individuals who went on the record to 1583 01:00:32,089 --> 01:00:30,000 try to throw cold water on this to try 1584 01:00:35,210 --> 01:00:32,099 to debunk it and like I think did a real 1585 01:00:37,370 --> 01:00:35,220 disservice a true disservice to ufology 1586 01:00:39,049 --> 01:00:37,380 they uh it was the biggest 1587 01:00:41,390 --> 01:00:39,059 disappointment in me to me 1588 01:00:42,289 --> 01:00:41,400 professionally to see some colleagues of 1589 01:00:45,530 --> 01:00:42,299 mine 1590 01:00:48,770 --> 01:00:45,540 go out of their way seems to 1591 01:00:51,650 --> 01:00:48,780 debunk this critically important leak 1592 01:00:53,630 --> 01:00:51,660 and really hinder our ability as a 1593 01:00:55,549 --> 01:00:53,640 community to move forward with this 1594 01:01:00,650 --> 01:00:55,559 to 1595 01:01:02,450 --> 01:01:00,660 broader conversation publicly and and it 1596 01:01:03,430 --> 01:01:02,460 didn't happen because a number of key 1597 01:01:07,789 --> 01:01:03,440 people 1598 01:01:10,730 --> 01:01:07,799 very prominently and really I think um 1599 01:01:13,849 --> 01:01:10,740 with some of them with Mal intent went 1600 01:01:15,950 --> 01:01:13,859 out of their way to debunk this publicly 1601 01:01:19,190 --> 01:01:15,960 it was a real a real Misfortune for 1602 01:01:24,770 --> 01:01:22,190 yeah well hey if it's of any consolation 1603 01:01:26,990 --> 01:01:24,780 uh the book's still open for me and I 1604 01:01:29,750 --> 01:01:27,000 closed it I was one of those people rich 1605 01:01:32,390 --> 01:01:29,760 I never spoke publicly or privately to 1606 01:01:33,890 --> 01:01:32,400 you about it but I kind of was like uh I 1607 01:01:35,150 --> 01:01:33,900 don't know but the more I hear you talk 1608 01:01:38,530 --> 01:01:35,160 about it 1609 01:01:42,589 --> 01:01:38,540 um the more it sounds like this is a 1610 01:01:46,309 --> 01:01:42,599 authentic occurrence and this was an 1611 01:01:50,150 --> 01:01:46,319 actual program and he is 1612 01:01:51,829 --> 01:01:50,160 100 genuine in what he was told like you 1613 01:01:55,730 --> 01:01:51,839 said the big question is 1614 01:01:58,730 --> 01:01:55,740 who told him this and was that true um 1615 01:02:01,690 --> 01:01:58,740 there's every reason to wonder about the 1616 01:02:04,670 --> 01:02:01,700 truth of what Wilson was told yeah 1617 01:02:07,609 --> 01:02:04,680 to wonder but but you have to even if we 1618 01:02:10,789 --> 01:02:07,619 go down that road we have to ask okay 1619 01:02:13,250 --> 01:02:10,799 is 100 of what they told him false is 50 1620 01:02:14,510 --> 01:02:13,260 of what they told him false is zero 1621 01:02:16,309 --> 01:02:14,520 percent of what they told him false or 1622 01:02:18,530 --> 01:02:16,319 some other number in there we have to 1623 01:02:20,329 --> 01:02:18,540 ask that I think 100 is highly 1624 01:02:21,829 --> 01:02:20,339 unrealistic I think even 50 is 1625 01:02:24,530 --> 01:02:21,839 unrealistic 1626 01:02:25,789 --> 01:02:24,540 frankly to tell someone who is 1627 01:02:27,710 --> 01:02:25,799 essentially running intelligence for The 1628 01:02:29,870 --> 01:02:27,720 Joint Chiefs like you're gonna really 1629 01:02:32,270 --> 01:02:29,880 lie that much to this guy you're really 1630 01:02:34,910 --> 01:02:32,280 gonna make up a story and and give him a 1631 01:02:37,750 --> 01:02:34,920 big BS tell really even if you're a 1632 01:02:40,730 --> 01:02:37,760 contractor with highest level security 1633 01:02:41,450 --> 01:02:40,740 you're gonna you're just gonna lie flat 1634 01:02:43,609 --> 01:02:41,460 out 1635 01:02:46,309 --> 01:02:43,619 you got you got cojones that big you're 1636 01:02:48,470 --> 01:02:46,319 gonna lie flat out to this guy who does 1637 01:02:50,630 --> 01:02:48,480 have some power 1638 01:02:53,270 --> 01:02:50,640 no I think what you will do is you will 1639 01:02:54,710 --> 01:02:53,280 tell him what as much as you need to 1640 01:02:56,630 --> 01:02:54,720 tell him 1641 01:02:59,930 --> 01:02:56,640 you might hedge a little bit here and 1642 01:03:02,630 --> 01:02:59,940 there that's possible but to assume that 1643 01:03:04,490 --> 01:03:02,640 they lied to him I think is also not 1644 01:03:09,049 --> 01:03:04,500 realistic 1645 01:03:13,430 --> 01:03:09,059 it and I can definitely tell you that 1646 01:03:16,970 --> 01:03:13,440 Eric Davis uh wrote those notes 1647 01:03:19,849 --> 01:03:16,980 everyone close to Davis knows this and 1648 01:03:21,650 --> 01:03:19,859 has privately said so by the way okay 1649 01:03:23,150 --> 01:03:21,660 they may not all go on the record but 1650 01:03:25,190 --> 01:03:23,160 they all know this 1651 01:03:28,630 --> 01:03:25,200 so Davis wrote the notes 1652 01:03:30,890 --> 01:03:28,640 and and people who know Davis no he is 1653 01:03:32,990 --> 01:03:30,900 fanatically like I've heard people say 1654 01:03:34,130 --> 01:03:33,000 he's incapable of lying well I don't 1655 01:03:36,530 --> 01:03:34,140 know if that's actually true is anyone 1656 01:03:40,250 --> 01:03:36,540 truly incapable but we get the idea 1657 01:03:42,710 --> 01:03:40,260 Davis is scrupulously openly honest 1658 01:03:44,930 --> 01:03:42,720 about and you've listened to the guy 1659 01:03:47,210 --> 01:03:44,940 you know he he essentially said this as 1660 01:03:48,410 --> 01:03:47,220 much there was a uh now a censored 1661 01:03:49,730 --> 01:03:48,420 interview that he did with the Stephen 1662 01:03:51,890 --> 01:03:49,740 Green Street of the basement office 1663 01:03:53,410 --> 01:03:51,900 where Green Street asked him flat out 1664 01:03:57,890 --> 01:03:53,420 and Davis 1665 01:03:59,990 --> 01:03:57,900 talked about those notices uh from Edgar 1666 01:04:02,030 --> 01:04:00,000 Mitchell's estate which they were they 1667 01:04:03,770 --> 01:04:02,040 were from Ed Mitchell's estate and and 1668 01:04:05,990 --> 01:04:03,780 he and 1669 01:04:08,589 --> 01:04:06,000 he never denied it he 1670 01:04:11,390 --> 01:04:08,599 he spoke of them as totally real 1671 01:04:13,670 --> 01:04:11,400 and they all know it's real but they 1672 01:04:16,670 --> 01:04:13,680 these people are all afraid of losing 1673 01:04:18,650 --> 01:04:16,680 security clearances that's number one 1674 01:04:19,970 --> 01:04:18,660 this isn't a classified document but it 1675 01:04:22,370 --> 01:04:19,980 does not matter 1676 01:04:26,089 --> 01:04:22,380 it's a document that deals with very 1677 01:04:28,069 --> 01:04:26,099 classified uh goings-on within the 1678 01:04:29,750 --> 01:04:28,079 National Security structure and all of 1679 01:04:33,289 --> 01:04:29,760 those people whether you talk about 1680 01:04:35,089 --> 01:04:33,299 Davis or putoff or kid green or Colm 1681 01:04:35,690 --> 01:04:35,099 Kelleher or 1682 01:04:37,730 --> 01:04:35,700 um 1683 01:04:40,430 --> 01:04:37,740 any of the other people Associated you 1684 01:04:42,049 --> 01:04:40,440 know with that crowd they've all had 1685 01:04:43,130 --> 01:04:42,059 long-standing security clearances and 1686 01:04:47,150 --> 01:04:43,140 they 1687 01:04:49,069 --> 01:04:47,160 by 1688 01:04:51,170 --> 01:04:49,079 having loose lips on this matter and 1689 01:04:53,030 --> 01:04:51,180 saying oh yeah it's real 1690 01:04:55,789 --> 01:04:53,040 you know they've got the Fig Leaf still 1691 01:04:58,309 --> 01:04:55,799 covering them just enough where they can 1692 01:04:59,630 --> 01:04:58,319 say no I didn't say anything 1693 01:05:01,150 --> 01:04:59,640 and that's that's where they're leaving 1694 01:05:03,470 --> 01:05:01,160 it because they they're all about 1695 01:05:05,030 --> 01:05:03,480 preserving their access because all of 1696 01:05:07,549 --> 01:05:05,040 those people 1697 01:05:09,530 --> 01:05:07,559 are on a quest the quest is to get to 1698 01:05:12,289 --> 01:05:09,540 the center of the labyrinth all of them 1699 01:05:16,010 --> 01:05:12,299 none of them are at the exact center 1700 01:05:17,990 --> 01:05:16,020 not maybe Davis I don't know but I doubt 1701 01:05:20,569 --> 01:05:18,000 it I don't think they're where they want 1702 01:05:23,030 --> 01:05:20,579 to be they all want more information and 1703 01:05:25,730 --> 01:05:23,040 back 20 years ago I know this for a fact 1704 01:05:27,530 --> 01:05:25,740 all of those people wanted to get more 1705 01:05:29,809 --> 01:05:27,540 information than what they had 1706 01:05:31,789 --> 01:05:29,819 and so when Wilson finally retired 1707 01:05:34,069 --> 01:05:31,799 because they knew about this right from 1708 01:05:36,650 --> 01:05:34,079 the beginning in 97 Mitchell was part of 1709 01:05:39,410 --> 01:05:36,660 the Greer team to meet with Wilson 1710 01:05:40,910 --> 01:05:39,420 Edgar Mitchell Mitchell was part of the 1711 01:05:43,370 --> 01:05:40,920 whole nibs crowd he was friends with 1712 01:05:46,190 --> 01:05:43,380 Davis and Putt off in green and Bigelow 1713 01:05:48,650 --> 01:05:46,200 and comb Kelleher and John Alexander 1714 01:05:50,030 --> 01:05:48,660 like all these people worked together on 1715 01:05:53,089 --> 01:05:50,040 the National Institute of Discovery 1716 01:05:55,670 --> 01:05:53,099 Science so Mitchell learned about Wilson 1717 01:05:58,309 --> 01:05:55,680 being shut out of his meeting with uh 1718 01:06:00,170 --> 01:05:58,319 with the contractors through uh Navy 1719 01:06:02,329 --> 01:06:00,180 Commander 1720 01:06:05,569 --> 01:06:02,339 um will Miller 1721 01:06:07,250 --> 01:06:05,579 so he Willard Miller he was with them 1722 01:06:10,549 --> 01:06:07,260 he was the one who found from Wilson 1723 01:06:14,089 --> 01:06:10,559 that Wilson got locked out in June of 97 1724 01:06:16,430 --> 01:06:14,099 three months later and he tells Greer 1725 01:06:17,990 --> 01:06:16,440 and he tells Mitchell because they were 1726 01:06:21,890 --> 01:06:18,000 all together 1727 01:06:24,770 --> 01:06:21,900 Greer goes on all the subsequent years 1728 01:06:28,370 --> 01:06:24,780 Greer openly talked about this 1729 01:06:31,910 --> 01:06:28,380 in his book hidden truth forbidden 1730 01:06:33,829 --> 01:06:31,920 knowledge in 2006 he mentioned the 1731 01:06:38,390 --> 01:06:33,839 meeting he mentioned Wilson 1732 01:06:39,349 --> 01:06:38,400 talked about it uh and Mitchell also 1733 01:06:41,569 --> 01:06:39,359 um 1734 01:06:43,609 --> 01:06:41,579 learned about it and he told his entire 1735 01:06:45,710 --> 01:06:43,619 crew at Ned's 1736 01:06:47,390 --> 01:06:45,720 one of those people 1737 01:06:51,230 --> 01:06:47,400 said to me oh yeah I've known about that 1738 01:06:55,069 --> 01:06:53,569 all right they've all known all right so 1739 01:06:58,430 --> 01:06:55,079 they're they're all interested in 1740 01:07:01,549 --> 01:06:58,440 getting to the center of the secret 1741 01:07:03,710 --> 01:07:01,559 they coveted that and it's possible in 1742 01:07:05,809 --> 01:07:03,720 the interim years that some of them may 1743 01:07:07,130 --> 01:07:05,819 have gotten there it's possible but in 1744 01:07:09,650 --> 01:07:07,140 2002 1745 01:07:11,329 --> 01:07:09,660 when they sent Davis on his mission and 1746 01:07:14,270 --> 01:07:11,339 Davis basically hit a home run interview 1747 01:07:16,370 --> 01:07:14,280 with that uh when they sent him off they 1748 01:07:18,410 --> 01:07:16,380 that was their goal they wanted 1749 01:07:20,210 --> 01:07:18,420 information they wanted confirmation 1750 01:07:22,010 --> 01:07:20,220 from Wilson 1751 01:07:23,390 --> 01:07:22,020 and they got it 1752 01:07:24,470 --> 01:07:23,400 and it was only supposed to be for 1753 01:07:26,569 --> 01:07:24,480 themselves 1754 01:07:28,910 --> 01:07:26,579 this wasn't for the rest of the world we 1755 01:07:30,109 --> 01:07:28,920 weren't interested in publicizing this 1756 01:07:32,210 --> 01:07:30,119 anywhere 1757 01:07:34,069 --> 01:07:32,220 so that's the um that's the meeting 1758 01:07:39,130 --> 01:07:34,079 that's how it worked that's why it 1759 01:07:46,150 --> 01:07:43,970 yeah I I'm I'm I'm back in

--> 01:08:13,619 what areas would Rich want to include in 1772 01:08:18,050 --> 01:08:16,020 the modules that would make up such a 1773 01:08:20,329 --> 01:08:18,060 course I mean we are hearing more and 1774 01:08:22,550 --> 01:08:20,339 more these days of universities taking 1775 01:08:24,490 --> 01:08:22,560 this topic seriously whether from a 1776 01:08:27,110 --> 01:08:24,500 historical

01:08:37,799 explicitly the answer to that 1783 01:08:43,849 --> 01:08:40,380 individual's question uh I designed this 1784 01:08:46,430 --> 01:08:43,859 actually originally I was asked by what 1785 01:08:48,590 --> 01:08:46,440 was then an online university of sorts 1786 01:08:50,090 --> 01:08:48,600 what do they call themselves 1787 01:08:51,470 --> 01:08:50,100 the international metaphysical 1788 01:08:52,669 --> 01:08:51,480 University I don't even know if they're 1789 01:08:53,630 --> 01:08:52,679 around 1790 01:08:56,390 --> 01:08:53,640 um 1791 01:08:58,010 --> 01:08:56,400 back uh in

UFOs like a UFOs 101 type thing 1795 01:09:08,390 --> 01:09:06,719 they had originally asked Stanton 1796 01:09:11,390 --> 01:09:08,400 Friedman but I guess Stan didn't want to 1797 01:09:13,789 --> 01:09:11,400 do it and they asked me and I thought ah 1798 01:09:14,809 --> 01:09:13,799 I'll design something and I and I did I 1799 01:09:17,209 --> 01:09:14,819 wrote 1800 01:09:19,390 --> 01:09:17,219 what really became UFOs for the 21st 1801 01:09:21,349 --> 01:09:19,400 century mine and what I looked at were 1802 01:09:24,229 --> 01:09:21,359 uh I mean 1803 01:09:26,329 -->

1806 01:09:32,090 --> 01:09:29,460 scientific questions how do we 1807 01:09:34,610 --> 01:09:32,100 understand what even a UFO is 1808 01:09:37,130 --> 01:09:34,620 um how Are UFOs easily misidentified and 1809 01:09:40,370 --> 01:09:37,140 so on and on uh and then I talk about 1810 01:09:44,209 --> 01:09:40,380 the in that chapter the implications of 1811 01:09:45,890 --> 01:09:44,219 what UFOs might mean to society uh I 1812 01:09:48,110 --> 01:09:45,900 have a chapter talking about theories of 1813 01:09:50,030 --> 01:09:48,120 ancient visitation you know the whole 1814 01:09:52,490 --> 01:09:50,040 Ancient Aliens phenomenon and I try to 1815 01:09:53,809 --> 01:09:52,500 dip my toe into that and get into it and 1816 01:09:57,590 --> 01:09:53,819 then there are several chapters that 1817 01:09:59,510 --> 01:09:57,600 deal with a I think a proper concise uh 1818 01:10:02,450 --> 01:09:59,520 analysis of the history of the UFO 1819 01:10:04,790 --> 01:10:02,460 phenomenon from early modern times to 1820 01:10:06,290 --> 01:10:04,800 the present uh I get into the political 1821 01:10:07,970 --> 01:10:06,300 implications which are very important 1822 01:10:10,250 --> 01:10:07,980 for any kind of academic understanding 1823 01:10:12,709 --> 01:10:10,260 of this you want to understand how does 1824 01:10:15,410 --> 01:10:12,719 the cover-up work what are the politics 1825 01:10:17,450 --> 01:10:15,420 of the UFO phenomenon you need to 1826 01:10:19,550 --> 01:10:17,460 understand that and so I try to do that 1827 01:10:20,990 --> 01:10:19,560 both at the surface level and then at 1828 01:10:24,229 --> 01:10:21,000 the the deeper level what I call the 1829 01:10:25,910 --> 01:10:24,239 Breakaway civilization level 1830 01:10:27,709 --> 01:10:25,920 and then the other things that they did 1831 01:10:28,970 --> 01:10:27,719 with their contact and abduction you 1832 01:10:30,709 --> 01:10:28,980 know the whole where the rubber meets 1833 01:10:32,870 --> 01:10:30,719 the road it's like what what is actually 1834 01:10:35,510 --> 01:10:32,880 happening here when you have individuals 1835 01:10:37,490 --> 01:10:35,520 who allege that they have had encounters 1836 01:10:39,770 --> 01:10:37,500 direct encounters with alien beings how 1837 01:10:41,810 --> 01:10:39,780 do we make sense out of this 1838 01:10:44,209 --> 01:10:41,820 and you know I try to try to deal with 1839 01:10:47,149 --> 01:10:44,219 that another thing that academicians 1840 01:10:49,790 --> 01:10:47,159 need to understand and I I haven't seen 1841 01:10:51,110 --> 01:10:49,800 anyone in the academic world or in the 1842 01:10:53,810 --> 01:10:51,120 world of ufology deal with this other 1843 01:10:56,930 --> 01:10:53,820 than myself which is to track the growth 1844 01:10:59,209 --> 01:10:56,940 of ufology against the backdrop of uh 1845 01:11:00,770 --> 01:10:59,219 our changing Society in general 1846 01:11:03,350 --> 01:11:00,780 including the birth of the internet 1847 01:11:05,270 --> 01:11:03,360 including just uh cultural and social 1848 01:11:07,130 --> 01:11:05,280 changes and the back and forth 1849 01:11:09,709 --> 01:11:07,140 interaction that ufology has had with 1850 01:11:11,570 --> 01:11:09,719 our society at large and how UFO 1851 01:11:12,830 --> 01:11:11,580 research has evolved over the years like 1852 01:11:15,590 --> 01:11:12,840 these are important 1853 01:11:17,030 --> 01:11:15,600 things and I I 1854 01:11:19,250 --> 01:11:17,040 don't hear I don't really hear anything 1855 01:11:21,050 --> 01:11:19,260 from anywhere else about that and then 1856 01:11:24,530 --> 01:11:21,060 uh the I have one chapter on the science 1857 01:11:26,510 --> 01:11:24,540 of UFOs which is you know Weird Science 1858 01:11:29,209 --> 01:11:26,520 whether it's propulsion technology or 1859 01:11:32,090 --> 01:11:29,219 space-time or Consciousness itself that 1860 01:11:34,610 --> 01:11:32,100 is the the science of the UFO phenomenon 1861 01:11:36,410 --> 01:11:34,620 is extremely important to understand and 1862 01:11:37,850 --> 01:11:36,420 then the other uh other things is just 1863 01:11:40,490 --> 01:11:37,860 looking at them and looking at our 1864 01:11:43,669 --> 01:11:40,500 future who are they what do they want is 1865 01:11:47,510 --> 01:11:43,679 a I I don't know if you can study this 1866 01:11:49,790 --> 01:11:47,520 academically precisely but I think 1867 01:11:51,950 --> 01:11:49,800 you can get into things like uh 1868 01:11:54,350 --> 01:11:51,960 comparative psychology evolutionary 1869 01:11:56,330 --> 01:11:54,360 psychology you can start asking what 1870 01:11:57,530 --> 01:11:56,340 might these other beings be interested 1871 01:12:04,250 --> 01:11:57,540 in 1872 01:12:06,709 --> 01:12:04,260 might be here well I have a lot of 1873 01:12:08,750 --> 01:12:06,719 thoughts on that and then the uh the 1874 01:12:10,250 --> 01:12:08,760 final chapter of that book is attempt to 1875 01:12:12,290 --> 01:12:10,260 look into the future where are we going 1876 01:12:14,630 --> 01:12:12,300 what is our trajectory what is the 1877 01:12:18,229 --> 01:12:14,640 trajectory of this phenomenon within the 1878 01:12:21,830 --> 01:12:18,239 context of our civilization so that book 1879 01:12:25,430 --> 01:12:21,840 literally is the the textbook 1880 01:12:27,290 --> 01:12:25,440 that was explicitly my intention 1881 01:12:30,770 --> 01:12:27,300 so to the individual who wrote that 1882 01:12:33,050 --> 01:12:30,780 question I would just say hey go buy the 1883 01:12:35,149 --> 01:12:33,060 new and Expanded Edition of UFOs for the 1884 01:12:38,390 --> 01:12:35,159 21st century mind and I think it will 1885 01:12:40,550 --> 01:12:38,400 give you a very good foundation for 1886 01:12:41,930 --> 01:12:40,560 further academic analysis of this 1887 01:12:44,689 --> 01:12:41,940 subject 1888 01:12:46,910 --> 01:12:44,699 that was my intention yeah required 1889 01:12:49,490 --> 01:12:46,920 reading there you go to Eamonn thank you 1890 01:12:52,610 --> 01:12:49,500 amen um well Rich we're gonna head over 1891 01:12:55,070 --> 01:12:52,620 to patreon to answer a few more of our 1892 01:12:56,990 --> 01:12:55,080 more theoretical questions on the 1893 01:12:58,970 --> 01:12:57,000 phenomenon in Aliens 1894 01:13:01,550 --> 01:12:58,980 um so I'm really excited about that but 1895 01:13:04,669 --> 01:13:01,560 of course the burning question on 1896 01:13:08,209 --> 01:13:04,679 everyone's mind before we wrap up here 1897 01:13:10,010 --> 01:13:08,219 volume three ah yes when is it happening 1898 01:13:12,050 --> 01:13:10,020 is it happening can you give us any 1899 01:13:14,270 --> 01:13:12,060 information on that yeah volume three of 1900 01:13:15,470 --> 01:13:14,280 UFOs in the National Security State ads 1901 01:13:17,810 --> 01:13:15,480 definitely happening there'll probably 1902 01:13:19,550 --> 01:13:17,820 be volume three and four realistically 1903 01:13:22,130 --> 01:13:19,560 it's just too much information but it's 1904 01:13:24,770 --> 01:13:22,140 happening uh right now I'm I'm uh in the 1905 01:13:26,450 --> 01:13:24,780 midst of writing a book on Usos so 1906 01:13:29,870 --> 01:13:26,460 unidentified submersible objects 1907 01:13:32,930 --> 01:13:29,880 underwater UFOs uh it's something that I 1908 01:13:36,110 --> 01:13:32,940 just jumped into uh for members of my 1909 01:13:38,990 --> 01:13:36,120 website uh close to a year ago and it 1910 01:13:44,330 --> 01:13:39,000 just led me down a fascinating path so 1911 01:13:47,330 --> 01:13:44,340 I'm doing a um a fairly uh 1912 01:13:49,490 --> 01:13:47,340 I I can't say comprehensive history of 1913 01:13:51,950 --> 01:13:49,500 all Uso sightings but a good history 1914 01:13:54,169 --> 01:13:51,960 that deals with the progression of the 1915 01:13:55,490 --> 01:13:54,179 phenomenon as we've recorded it over the 1916 01:13:58,490 --> 01:13:55,500 years and that includes right up into 1917 01:14:01,130 --> 01:13:58,500 the present day so I'm very excited 1918 01:14:02,990 --> 01:14:01,140 about that book but uh volume three of 1919 01:14:04,430 --> 01:14:03,000 the National Security State series is 1920 01:14:06,110 --> 01:14:04,440 happening I've had a lot of 1921 01:14:08,990 --> 01:14:06,120 interruptions along the way 1922 01:14:11,209 --> 01:14:09,000 you know first was after disclosure then 1923 01:14:12,770 --> 01:14:11,219 was the original version of UFOs for the 1924 01:14:15,169 --> 01:14:12,780 21st century mine 1925 01:14:17,870 --> 01:14:15,179 uh and then you know 1926 01:14:21,290 --> 01:14:17,880 I did The Detour into looking into false 1927 01:14:23,090 --> 01:14:21,300 flags as a phenomenon and I actually did 1928 01:14:25,610 --> 01:14:23,100 not end up writing a book on false Flags 1929 01:14:27,709 --> 01:14:25,620 but I did a I did a TV series that I 1930 01:14:29,450 --> 01:14:27,719 wrote for Gaia on that and I did a lot 1931 01:14:31,910 --> 01:14:29,460 of study of that but then I got back to 1932 01:14:34,010 --> 01:14:31,920 the UFO field and um 1933 01:14:36,590 --> 01:14:34,020 started up my website where I'm just 1934 01:14:38,330 --> 01:14:36,600 producing content content content 1935 01:14:40,130 --> 01:14:38,340 then I wrote the alien agendas a couple 1936 01:14:42,649 --> 01:14:40,140 of years ago like I've had all these 1937 01:14:45,290 --> 01:14:42,659 things get in the way of volume 3 of 1938 01:14:47,930 -->

that's sadly the 1986 01:16:33,470 --> 01:16:31,739 case 1987 01:16:35,330 --> 01:16:33,480 so I'm not saying that I'm right about 1988 01:16:37,250 --> 01:16:35,340 everything that I think I'm sure I mean 1989 01:16:40,310 --> 01:16:37,260 look I can make mistakes like anyone but 1990 01:16:41,689 --> 01:16:40,320 I do think that uh I have a perspective 1991 01:16:44,149 --> 01:16:41,699 that's a little different than that of 1992 01:16:45,110 --> 01:16:44,159 many other researchers and 1993 01:16:46,610 --> 01:16:45,120 we want to get the different 1994 01:16:48,350 --> 01:16:46,620 perspectives out there so I've just 1995 01:16:50,220 --> 01:16:48,360 tried to share mine 1996 01:16:52,170 --> 01:16:50,230 Thank you Rich we appreciate it 1997 01:17:35,080 --> 01:16:52,180 [Music]
